Leviticus 2:4

Processed Grain Offerings

2:4 “‘When you present an offering of grain baked in an oven, it must be made of ⁵  choice wheat flour baked into unleavened loaves ⁶  mixed with olive oil or ⁷  unleavened wafers smeared ⁸  with olive oil.

Leviticus 23:17

¹ tn Or “for a thank offering.”

² tn See the notes on Lev 2:4.

³ tn See the note on Lev 6:21 [6:14 HT].

⁴ tn Heb “choice wheat flour well soaked ring-shaped loaves.” See the note on Lev 2:1.

⁵ 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.

⁶ 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).

⁷ tn Heb “and.” Here the conjunction vav (ו) has an alternative sense (“or”).

⁸ 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).

⁹ tc Smr, LXX, Syriac, Tg. Onq., and Tg. Ps.-J. insert the word חַלּוֹת (khallot, “loaves”; cf. Lev 2:4 and the note there). Even though “loaves” is not explicit in the MT, the number “two” suggests that these are discrete units, not just a measure of flour, so “loaves” should be assumed even in the MT.

¹⁰ tn Heb “with leaven.” The noun “leaven” is traditional in English versions (cf. KJV, ASV, NASB, NRSV), but “yeast” is more commonly used today.
