Leviticus 2 Commentary

Leviticus 2:1-3 introduces a type of sacrifice called a grain offering.

Continuing the instructions for a grain offering, Leviticus 2:4-10 begins detailing the various forms this offering may take, emphasizing the care and reverence with which offerings are to be made to the LORD.

Leviticus 2:11-13 provides further instructions on what must be excluded from the grain offering and introduces an essential element that must be present: salt.

Leviticus 2:14-16 describes another variation of the grain offering, this time concerning the "early ripened things," also known as the first harvest.
