Lev 2:1 And when any will offer a meat offering unto the LORD, his offering shall be [of] fine flour; and he shall pour oil upon it, and put frankincense thereon:
Ver. 1. **Of fine flour.** ] No quantity is here prescribed, because it was a freewill offering: only it must be fine, no bran in it: to show the purity of Christ’s sacrifice, Heb 7:26 and of our services through him, Mal 3:11 by means of the oil of his Spirit and incense of his intercession.

Lev 2:2 And he shall bring it to Aaron’s sons the priests: and he shall take thereout his handful of the flour thereof, and of the oil thereof, with all the frankincense thereof; and the priest shall burn the memorial of it upon the altar, [to be] an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the LORD:
Ver. 2. **Shall burn the memorial of it.** ] Whereby God was reminded, as it were, of the party offering, and acknowledging all his store to be from God.

Lev 2:3 And the remnant of the meat offering [shall be] Aaron’s and his sons’: [it is] a thing most holy of the offerings of the LORD made by fire.
Ver. 3. Shall be Aaron’s and his sons’.] As meat for them. Hence it was called a meat offering; and sent them to Christ, the meat that endureth unto life everlasting. Joh 6:27

Lev 2:4 And if thou bring an oblation of a meat offering baken in the oven, [it shall be] unleavened cakes of fine flour mingled with oil, or unleavened wafers anointed with oil.
Ver. 4. **Unleavened cake of fine flour mingled with oil.** ] Sincerity is the mother of serenity; truth, of tranquillity.

Lev 2:5 And if thy oblation [be] a meat offering [baken] in a pan, it shall be [of] fine flour unleavened, mingled with oil.
Ver. 5. **Baken in a pan.** ] Afterwards parted in pieces, and oil poured upon it: signifying the graces of God’s Spirit wherewith Christ was fully anointed within and without, Psa 45:8 and wherewith we should be tempered and anointed. [1 John 2:27](../../../kjv/1-john/2/27) ** 2Co 1:21

Lev 2:6 Thou shalt part it in pieces, and pour oil thereon: it [is] a meat offering.
Ver. 6. **And pour oil thereon.** ] Jacob was the first we read of that consecrated his offerings with oil. Gen 28:18 Probably he had it from his predecessors.

Lev 2:7 And if thy oblation [be] a meat offering [baken] in the fryingpan, it shall be made [of] fine flour with oil.
Ver. 7. **Baken in the frying pan.** ] So, My heart is frying of a good matter, saith David. Psa 45:1

Lev 2:8 And thou shalt bring the meat offering that is made of these things unto the LORD: and when it is presented unto the priest, he shall bring it unto the altar.
Ver. 8. **He shall bring it unto the altar.** ] God would have all their offerings brought to one altar; both to figure out the one only all sufficient sacririce of Christ, and to teach all the faithful to consent in one and the same truth of the gospel.

Lev 2:9 And the priest shall take from the meat offering a memorial thereof, and shall burn [it] upon the altar: [it is] an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the LORD.
Ver. 9. **A memorial thereof.** ] Signifying the perpetual benefit of Christ’s death to all believers.

Lev 2:10 And that which is left of the meat offering [shall be] Aaron’s and his sons’: [it is] a thing most holy of the offerings of the LORD made by fire.
Ver. 10. Shall be Aaron’s and his sons’.] Ministers’ maintenance.

Lev 2:11 No meat offering, which ye shall bring unto the LORD, shall be made with leaven: for ye shall burn no leaven, nor any honey, in any offering of the LORD made by fire.
Ver. 11. **Nor any honey.** ] Which hath a leavening virtue in it. Sweet sins are to be abandoned there will be bitterness in the end. Pro 26:26-27

Lev 2:12 As for the oblation of the firstfruits, ye shall offer them unto the LORD: but they shall not be burnt on the altar for a sweet savour.
Ver. 12. **Ye shall offer them,** ] i.e., With the firstfruits ye shall offer both leaven Lev 23:17 and honey. 2Ch 31:5 Both which are sometimes taken in the better part. Mat 13:33 ** Son 4:11

Lev 2:13 And every oblation of thy meat offering shalt thou season with salt; neither shalt thou suffer the salt of the covenant of thy God to be lacking from thy meat offering: with all thine offerings thou shalt offer salt.
Ver. 13. **Shalt thou season with salt.** ] Called here the salt of God’s covenant; as signifying the covenant of God made with us in Christ, who seasoneth us, and makes all our services savoury. See the note on [Mark 9:49-50](../../../kjv/mark/9/49-50) .

Lev 2:14 And if thou offer a meat offering of thy firstfruits unto the LORD, thou shalt offer for the meat offering of thy firstfruits green ears of corn dried by the fire, [even] corn beaten out of full ears.
Ver. 14. **Green ears of corn.** ] To signify that God should be served with the firstfruits of our age, the primrose of our childhood.

Lev 2:15 And thou shalt put oil upon it, and lay frankincense thereon: it [is] a meat offering.
Ver. 15. **And thou shalt put oil upon it.** ] Signifying the graces of God in Christ and his members, and the sweet odour of his oblation for us.

Lev 2:16 And the priest shall burn the memorial of it, [part] of the beaten corn thereof, and [part] of the oil thereof, with all the frankincense thereof: [it is] an offering made by fire unto the LORD.
Ver. 16. **The memorial of it,** ] i.e., The thing offered for a memorial.
