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 "These are the instructions for the Peace-Offering which is presented to God.
12 If you bring it to offer thanksgiving, then along with the Thanksgiving-Offering present unraised loaves of bread mixed with oil, unraised wafers spread with oil, and cakes of fine flour, well-kneaded and mixed with oil.
13 Along with the Peace-Offering of thanksgiving, present loaves of yeast bread as an offering.
14 Bring one of each kind as an offering, a Contribution-Offering to God; it goes to the priest who throws the blood of the Peace-Offering.
15 Eat the meat from the Peace-Offering of thanksgiving the same day it is offered. Don't leave any of it overnight.
