Leviticus 2:1

Leviticus 2:1. A meat-offering— The words immediately following clearly shew what is meant by this offering; and, consequently, how ill it is rendered a meat-offering. מנחה Minchah signifies any offering or present made to God, as a means of appearing his wrath; and it should certainly have been rendered here, either a bread or wheat-offering: accordingly, Le Clerc renders it donarium farreum; and the French gateau.
