Leviticus 2:4-7

2:4

offering of grain <04503> [meat offering.]

oven <08574> [the oven.]

{Tannur}, probably such an oven as that described by D'Arvieux, as used by the Arabs. He states that they make a fire in a great stone pitcher, and when heated, mix meal and water, which they apply with the hollow of their hands to the outside, and this soft paste spreading itself upon it, is baked in an instant, and the bread comes of as thin as our wafers.

wafers <07550> [wafers.]


2:5

griddle <04227> [in a pan. or, on a flat plate, or slice.]

{Machavath,} a flat iron plate, such as the Arabs still use to bake their cakes on, and which is called a griddle in some of our counties.


2:6


2:7

pan <04802> [the frying-pan.]

{Marchesheth}, a shallow earthen vessel, like a frying pan, which the Arabs call a {tajen.}

choice wheat flour <05560> [of fine.]

7:7

guilt offering <0817> [the trespass.]


7:8

priest .................. him <03548> [even the priest.]

All the flesh of the burnt offerings being consumed upon the altar, as well as the fat, there could nothing fall to the share of the priest but the skin; which must have been very valuable, as they were used as mattresses (ch. 15:17,) or as carpets to sit upon in the day. They are still used for the same purpose by some of the inhabitants and dervishes of the East. Bishop Patrick remarks, that Adam himself offered the first sacrifice, and had the skin given him by God, to make garments for him and his wife; in conformity with which, the priests ever after had the skin of the whole burnt offerings for their portion.

hide <05785> [skin.]


7:9

7:15

eaten <0398> [be eaten.]

[See on]

set <03240> [he shall not.]

Mr. Harmer supposes that this law refers to the custom of drying flesh, that had been devoted to a religious purpose, which is practised among the Mohammedans at the present day, on the their pilgrimage to Mecca. "It would not have suited," he observes, "the genius of the Mosaic dispensation, to have allowed them to have dried the flesh of their peace offerings, whether in thanksgiving, in consequence of a vow, or merely voluntary, and have afterwards eaten the flesh very commonly in a sparing manner, or communicated only some small portion of it to their particular friends: their peace offerings were to be eaten, on the contrary, with festivity, communicated to their friends with liberality, and bestowed on the poor with great generosity, that they might partake with them of these sacred repasts with joy before the Lord."

cut off <03772> [cut off.]


7:23

fat <02459> [fat.]

Any other fat they might eat; but the fat of these was sacred, because they were the only animals which were offered in sacrifice, though many others ranked among the clean animals as well as these. This prohibition may, however, be understood of these animals when offered in sacrifice, and then only in reference to the inward fat, described in ver. 4. Of the fat in any other circumstances, it cannot be intended, as it was one of the especial blessings which God gave to his people.--"Butter of kine, and milk of sheep, with fat of lambs, and rams of the breed of Bashan, and goats," were the provision which he graciously bestowed on his followers. (See De 32:12-14.)


7:24

died of natural causes <05038> [beast. Heb. carcase.]


7:25

cut off <03772> [shall be cut off.]


7:26

eat <0398> [ye shall eat.]

The prohibition of the fat or suet, which was restricted to animals offered in sacrifice, taught reverence to the altar and ordinances of God; but that of blood, which was extended to all land animals, had especial respect to the atoning blood of the sacrifice, and of the great antitype which the sacrifice prefigured.


7:27

Shall be excommunicated or cut off from the people of God, and so deprived of any part of their inheritance or of their blessings.
