Leviticus 24:7 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 24:7

And thou shalt put pure frankincense upon [each] row
Two cups of frankincense, in each of which was an handful of it, and which were set by each row of the cakes, as Jarchi observes: that it may be on the bread for a memorial;
or "for the bread", instead of it, for a memorial of it; that being to be eaten by the priests, and this to be burned on the altar to the Lord, as follows: [even] an offering made by fire unto the Lord;
not the bread that was after a time taken away, and eaten by the priests, but the frankincense.

Leviticus 24:7 In-Context

5 "You are to take fine flour and use it to bake twelve loaves, one gallon per loaf.
6 Arrange them in two rows, six in a row, on the pure table before ADONAI.
7 Put frankincense with each row to be an offering made by fire to ADONAI in place of the bread and as a reminder of it.
8 Regularly, every Shabbat, he is to arrange them before ADONAI ; they are from the people of Isra'el, as a covenant forever.
9 They will belong to Aharon and his sons; and they are to eat them in a holy place; because for him they are, of the offerings for ADONAI made by fire, especially holy. This is a permanent law."
