Leviticus 6:14–23

The Grain Offering

¹⁴“Now this is the law of the grain offering: ^wAaron’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. ^xIt is to be eaten in the form of unleavened bread ^yin a holy place; ^zthey are to eat it in the courtyard ^aof the tent of meeting. ¹⁷It must not be baked with yeast; I have assigned it as their portion ^bfrom My fire offerings. ^cIt is especially holy, like the sin offering ^dand the restitution offering. ¹⁸Any male among Aaron’s descendants ^emay eat it. It is a permanent portion ^fgthroughout your generations from the fire offerings to the Lord. Anything that touches the offerings will become holy.” ^h

¹⁹The Lord spoke to Moses: ²⁰“This is the offering that Aaron and his sons must present to the Lord on the day that he is anointed: two quarts ⁱof fine flour as a regular ^jgrain 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 must present it as a grain offering of baked pieces, ^ka 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; ^lit is not to be eaten.”
