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. ¹⁵The 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. ¹⁶Aaron and his sons may eat the rest of it.^c It is to be eaten in the form of unleavened bread^d in a holy place;^e they are to eat it in the courtyard^f of the tent of meeting. ¹⁷It must not be baked with yeast; I have assigned it as their portion^g from my food offerings.^h It is especially holy, like the sin offeringⁱ and the guilt offering. ¹⁸Any male among Aaron’s descendants^j may eat it. It is a permanent portion^Ak throughout your generations from the food offerings to the Lord. Anything that touches the offerings will become holy.”^l

¹⁹The 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 quarts^B of fine flour as a regular grain offering, half of it in the morning and half in the evening. ²¹It 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. ²²The 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. ²³Every grain offering for a priest will be a whole burnt offering;^m it is not to be eaten.”
