Leviticus 7:13

13 With your thanksgiving sacrifice of well-being you shall bring your offering with cakes of leavened bread.

Leviticus 7:13 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 7:13

Besides the cakes
The unleavened cakes, and the unleavened wafers, and the fried cakes; or with these, as Aben Ezra and Abendana interpret it:

he shall offer for his offering leavened bread, with the sacrifice
of thanksgiving of his peace offerings;
not that this was offered upon the altar, for all leaven was forbidden there, ( Leviticus 2:11 ) but it was given to the priest, that he might have change of bread, and such as was agreeable to him, to eat with the flesh of the peace offerings he had a share of, and to the owners also; and the whole of this consisted of ten cakes likewise, as will appear by what Maimonides F7 says; he (the offerer) takes twenty tenths of fine flour, and makes ten leavened, and ten unleavened; the ten leavened he makes into ten cakes, and the ten unleavened he makes of them eighty cakes alike, ten cakes of every sort, ten cakes baked in an oven, ten cakes wafers, and ten cakes slightly baked.

Leviticus 7:13 In-Context

11 This is the ritual of the sacrifice of the offering of well-being that one may offer to the Lord.
12 If you offer it for thanksgiving, you shall offer with the thank offering unleavened cakes mixed with oil, unleavened wafers spread with oil, and cakes of choice flour well soaked in oil.
13 With your thanksgiving sacrifice of well-being you shall bring your offering with cakes of leavened bread.
14 From this you shall offer one cake from each offering, as a gift to the Lord; it shall belong to the priest who dashes the blood of the offering of well-being.
15 And the flesh of your thanksgiving sacrifice of well-being shall be eaten on the day it is offered; you shall not leave any of it until morning.
