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 This is the law of the sacrifice of peaceable things, which is offered to the Lord. (And this is the law for the peace offerings which be offered to the Lord.)
12 If the offering is for the doing of thankings, they shall offer loaves without sourdough sprinkled with oil, and thin therf cakes, that be anointed with oil; and they shall offer [tried] wheat flour baken, and little round loaves, sprinkled altogether with the meddling of oil. (If the offering is a thank offering, they shall offer bread made without yeast and sprinkled with oil, and thin unleavened wafers that be anointed with oil, and little round cakes of fine wheat flour, mixed with oil.)
13 Also they shall offer loaves dighted with sourdough, with the sacrifice of thankings which is offered for peaceable things; (And they shall offer loaves made with yeast, with the thank offering, which is a peace offering;)
14 of all one loaf shall be offered to the Lord for the first fruits, and it shall be the priest's that shall pour the blood of the sacrifice, (and one part of every offering shall be offered to the Lord as a special contribution, and it shall be the priest's who shall throw the blood of the sacrifice against all the sides of the altar,)
15 whose flesh shall be eaten in the same day (whose flesh shall be eaten on the same day), neither anything of those shall dwell till the morrowtide.
