BRAGADAYJAH 290

Following the burnt offering were provisions for the meal offering.  “And when thou offer a meal offering, unto the Lord, it shall be of fine flour mixed with oil and frankincense.”
 It was to be presented to Aaron and his sons. And the priest would take a handful of the mixture of flour and oil and frankincense and burn it upon the altar with fire for a sweet savor unto the Lord.   And the rest of the offering shall be for Aaron and his sons. And it shall be a thing holy unto the Lord.
If the offering was an oblation of an offering baked in the oven, it shall be made of unleavened cakes, of fine flour mixed with oil; and it shall be parted in pieces and oil poured on it  for a meal offering.
Another kind of a meal offering for an oblation was a meal offering baked in the frying pan, it shall likewise be of fine flour mixed with oil. Then it is presented to the priest who would then take it unto the altar.  Then the priest would take a part of it and burn it on the altar as an offering made by fire and a sweet savor unto the Lord. And in any case, after the part was burnt the remainder was for Aaron and his sons   And whether baked or fried it could never be made with leaven or honey; for no offering made unto the Lord could be made with leaven or honey unto the Lord.

The fine flour speaks of the evenness and perfection of Christ’s character in which there was no quality out of balance and none lacking; the fire spoke of Christ’s suffering as if by fire unto death; frankincense speaks of His fragrance, pureness and perfection before God; the absence of leaven speaks of His purity in truth; the absence of honey indicated a substance, the body of Christ, sweet in itself requiring no outside or artificial flavor; it was natural sweetness by nature; and the oil symbolized that Christ was born of the Holy Spirit of God.  More    www.chaberbooks.com
