Leviticus 2
When offering an oblation to the Lord, it must be made of fine wheat flour, with oil and frankincense, and a portion of it must be burned on the altar as a memorial. The remainder of the sacrifice belongs to the priests. Oblations can be baked in the oven, fried in a pan, or made from parched grain, but they must be made without leaven and seasoned with salt. A portion of each oblation must be burned on the altar as a memorial, and the rest belongs to the priests.
1When a soul will offer an oblation of sacrifice to the Lord, his oblation shall be of fine wheat flour, and he shall pour oil over it, and he shall set down frankincense2and he shall bring it to the sons of Aaron, the priests. One of them shall take a handful of the flour with oil, as well as all the frankincense, and he shall place it as a memorial upon the altar, as a most sweet odor to the Lord3Then what will remain of the sacrifice shall be for Aaron and his sons, the Holy of holies from the oblations of the Lord4But when you will offer a sacrifice baked in the oven from fine wheat flour, specifically: loaves without leaven, sprinkled with oil, and unleavened wafers, rubbed with oil5if your oblation will be from the frying pan, of flour tempered with oil and without leaven6you shall divide it into little pieces and pour oil over it7But if the sacrifice will be from the oven grating, equally the fine wheat flour shall be sprinkled with oil8When you are offering it to the Lord, you shall deliver it into the hands of the priest9And when he has offered it, he shall take a memorial from the sacrifice and burn it upon the altar as a sweet odor to the Lord10But whatever is left shall be for Aaron and his sons, the Holy of holies from the oblations of the Lord11Every oblation that is offered to the Lord shall be made without leaven; neither shall any leaven or honey be burned with the sacrifice to the Lord12You shall offer only the first-fruits of these along with the gifts. Yet truly, these shall not be placed upon the altar as an odor of sweetness13Whatever sacrifice you will offer, you shall season it with salt; neither shall you take away the salt of the covenant of your God from your sacrifice. In all your oblations, you shall offer salt14But if you will offer a gift of the first-fruits of your grain to the Lord, from ears of grain still green, you shall parch it at the fire, and break it open in the manner of meal. And so shall you offer your first-fruits to the Lord15pouring oil over it, and imposing frankincense, because it is an oblation of the Lord16From this, the priest shall burn, as a memorial of the gift, a portion of the cracked grain and the oil, as well as all of the frankincense
