Leviticus 6:14–23

THE GRAIN OFFERING

14 “Now this is the law of the grain offering:b Aaron’s sons will present it before the Lord in front of the altar. 15 The priest is to remove a handful of fine flour and olive oil from the grain offering, with all the frankincense that is on the offering, and burn its memorial portion on the altar as a pleasing aroma to the Lord. 16 Aaron and his sons may eat the rest of it.c It is to be eaten in the form of unleavened breadd in a holy place;e they are to eat it in the courtyardf of the tent of meeting. 17 It must not be baked with yeast; I have assigned it as their portiong from my food offerings.h It is especially holy, like the sin offeringi and the guilt offering. 18 Any male among Aaron’s descendantsj may eat it. It is a permanent portionA,k throughout your generations from the food offerings to the Lord. Anything that touches the offerings will become holy.”l

19 The Lord spoke to Moses: 20 “This is the offering that Aaron and his sons are to present to the Lord on the day that he is anointed: two quartsB of fine flour as a regular grain offering, half of it in the morning and half in the evening. 21 It is to be prepared with oil on a griddle; you are to bring it well-kneaded. You are to present it as a grain offering of baked pieces,C a pleasing aroma to the Lord. 22 The priest, who is one of Aaron’s sons and will be anointed to take his place, is to prepare it. It must be completely burned as a permanent portion for the Lord. 23 Every grain offering for a priest will be a whole burnt offering;m it is not to be eaten.”
