Leviticus 2:4

Processed Grain Offerings

2:4 “‘When you present an offering of grain baked in an oven, it must be made of ¹  choice wheat flour baked into unleavened loaves ²  mixed with olive oil or ³  unleavened wafers smeared ⁴  with olive oil.

Leviticus 7:12

7:12 If he presents it on account of thanksgiving, ⁵  along with the thank offering sacrifice he must present unleavened loaves mixed with olive oil, unleavened wafers smeared with olive oil, ⁶  and well soaked ⁷  ring-shaped loaves made of choice wheat flour ⁸  mixed with olive oil.

Leviticus 8:26

8:26 and from the basket of unleavened bread that was before the Lord he took one unleavened loaf, one loaf of bread mixed with olive oil, and one wafer, ⁹  and placed them on the fat parts and on the right thigh.

[2:4]  ¹ tn The insertion of the words “it must be made of” is justified by the context and the expressed words “it shall be made of” in vv. 7 and 8 below.

[2:4]  ² sn These “loaves” were either “ring-shaped” (HALOT 317 s.v. חַלָּה) or “perforated” (BDB 319 s.v. חַלָּה; cf. J. Milgrom, Leviticus [AB], 1:184).

[2:4]  ³ tn Heb “and.” Here the conjunction vav (ו) has an alternative sense (“or”).

[2:4]  ⁴ tn The Hebrew word מְשֻׁחִים (mÿshukhim) translated here as “smeared” is often translated “anointed” in other contexts. Cf. TEV “brushed with olive oil” (CEV similar).

[7:12]  ⁵ tn Or “for a thank offering.”

[7:12]  ⁶ tn See the notes on Lev 2:4.

[7:12]  ⁷ tn See the note on Lev 6:21 [6:14 HT].

[7:12]  ⁸ tn Heb “choice wheat flour well soaked ring-shaped loaves.” See the note on Lev 2:1.
