Leviticus 2:3

3 The rest of the grain offering will belong to Aaron and the priests; it is a most holy part of the offerings made by fire to the Lord.

Leviticus 2:3 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 2:3

And the remnant of the meat offering shall be Aaron's and
his sons'
Which not only shows the care taken by the Lord for the maintenance of the priests, from whence the apostle argues for the support of ministers of the Gospel, ( 1 Corinthians 9:13 1 Corinthians 9:14 ) but denotes that such who are made priests unto God by Christ, have a right to feed upon Christ the meat offering by faith; who is that altar and meat offering, which none but such have a right to eat of:

it is a thing most holy of the offerings of the Lord made by fire;
some offerings with the Jews were only holy things, or, as they call them, "light" holy things, comparatively speaking; others were heavy holy things, or most holy; or, as it is in the original, "holiness of holiness", the most holy of all.

Leviticus 2:3 In-Context

1 "'When anyone offers a grain offering to the Lord, it must be made from fine flour. The person must pour oil on it, put incense on it,
2 and then take it to Aaron's sons, the priests. The priest must take a handful of the fine flour and oil and all the incense, and burn it on the altar as a memorial portion. It is an offering made by fire, and its smell is pleasing to the Lord.
3 The rest of the grain offering will belong to Aaron and the priests; it is a most holy part of the offerings made by fire to the Lord.
4 "'If you bring a grain offering that was baked in the oven, it must be made from fine flour. It may be loaves made without yeast and mixed with oil, or it may be wafers made without yeast that have oil poured over them.
5 If your grain offering is cooked on a griddle, it must be made, without yeast, of fine flour mixed with oil.
