John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Leviticus 2:11

Verse 11 11.No meat-offering, which ye shall bring. God here forbids leavened cakes to be offered to Him, by which rite the ancients were taught that God’s service is corrupted if any strange invention be mingled with it. Nor can it be doubted but that. Christ alluded to this when He warned His disciples to “beware of the leaven of the Pharisees,” (Matthew 16:11;) understanding by that word the fictions whereby they had corrupted religion. The eating of leaven was forbidden in the Passover for... read more

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Leviticus 2:13

Verse 13 13.And every oblation of thy meat-offering. The reason for salting the victims was very similar, viz., that God’s service might not be without savor; but the true seasoning which gives grace to sacrifices is found nowhere except in God’s word. Hence it follows that all modes of worship fabricated by men are rejected as unsavory. For although they who profane God’s worship by superstitions think themselves very acute, yet all that most approves itself to them under the cloak of wisdom... read more

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Leviticus 2:14

Verse 14 14.And if thou offer a meat-offering. This offering is different from that of the first-fruits, since it was voluntary, whereas the first-fruits were paid in obedience to the enactment of the Law. But if any one chose to add anything to the first-fruits of his new corn, Moses lays down the rule, that the ears should be dried in the fire, so that they might be more easily pounded, and so might be burnt mixed with oil and frankincense; for so I interpret his words, that he means the same... read more

Consecrated life-work, as brought out in the meat offering. cf. John 4:34 ; Acts 10:4 ; Philippians 4:18 ; John 6:27 . The idea prominently presented in the burnt offering is, we have seen, personal consecration, on the ground of expiation and acceptance through a substitute. In the meat offering, to which we now address ourselves, we find the further and supplementary idea of consecrated life-work. For the fine flour presented was the product of labour, the actual outcome... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 2:1-16

The meat offering. It consisted of a gift to God of the products of the earth most needed for the support of life—flour and oil, to which were added salt and frankincense, and it was generally accompanied by the drink offering of wine. It was offered to God in token of the recognition of his almighty power which gave the corn, the olive, and the vine, and of the submission of the creature to him, the merciful Creator. I. IT WAS A GIFT OF HOMAGE . As such, it had a meaning... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 2:1-16

Our recognition of the hand of God in the blessings of life. The fact that the law of the meat offering follows that of the burnt offering is itself significant. It suggests— I. THE TRUE ORDER OF THE DIVINE LIFE IN MAN . It is, indeed, a mistake for the human teacher to attempt to lay down precise lines of thought and feeling along which souls must move. "The progress of religion in the soul" varies with individual experience. The action of God's Spirit is not... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 2:4-11

The second form of meat offering, when the flour and oil were made up into four varieties of cakes. The ritual of offering is not different from that of the first form. The frankincense is not mentioned, but doubtless is understood. The rabbinical rule, that meat offerings, when following upon burnt offerings or peace offerings, had no frankincense burnt with them, rests on no solid foundation. read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 2:4-16

The various kinds of meat offerings. Without dwelling on every minute regulation, the following main points may be distinguished as representative. I. OFFERED FOOD . Acknowledgment of dependence. Praise for life and its gifts. Joys and pleasures should be consecrated. The will of God in them and over them. Family worship a duty. Recognition of God in common life. Firstfruits are God's, not the remnant or gleanings of our faculties and opportunities, but all. II. OFFERING ... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 2:7-13

The offering of daily life. It is interesting to perceive how the instructions here recorded made it possible for all classes of the people to bring sacrifices to Jehovah. None could complain of want of sufficient means or of the necessary cooking utensils. All such objections are forestalled by these inclusive arrangements. Whether consisting of "cakes" or "wafers," whether baked on a fiat iron plate or boiled in a pot, the offering was lawful and acceptable. How, then, can we imagine... read more
