Leviticus 2:16 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 2:16

The priest shall burn the memorial of it
That which is taken out of it for a memorial, the same with the handful of fine flour and cakes of the meat offering:

part of the beaten corn thereof;
or that which was ground in a mill:

and part of the oil thereof, with all the frankincense thereof;
as was done in the other meat offerings:

it is an offering made by fire unto the Lord,
see ( Leviticus 2:2 ) .

Leviticus 2:16 In-Context

14 But if thou offer a gift of the firstfruits of thy corn to the Lord, of the ears yet green, thou shalt dry it at the fire, and break it small like meal; and so shalt thou offer thy firstfruits to the Lord:
15 Pouring oil upon it and putting on frankincense, because it is the oblation of the Lord.
16 Whereof the priest shall burn for a memorial of the gift, part of the corn broken small and of the oil, and all the frankincense.
