Leviticus 2:9 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 2:9

And the priest shall take from the meat offering a memorial
thereof
That is, an handful of it; as of the fine flour, ( Leviticus 2:2 ) so of the pieces of that which was baked, whether in the oven, or pan, or fryingpan:

and shall burn it upon the altar;
the memorial or handful:

[it is] an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the Lord;
(See Gill on Leviticus 1:9).

Leviticus 2:9 In-Context

7 If your offering is grain prepared in a pan, it must be made of choice flour with oil.
8 You will bring the grain offering made in one of these ways to the LORD, presenting it to the priest, who will then bring it to the altar.
9 The priest will remove from the grain offering the token portion and completely burn it on the altar as a food gift of soothing smell to the LORD.
10 The rest of the grain offering belongs to Aaron and his sons as a most holy portion from the LORD's food gifts.
11 No grain offering that you give to the LORD can be made with yeast. You must not completely burn any yeast or honey as a food gift for the LORD.
