BRAGADAYJAH 291

Offering of first fruits.

Looking at the type of offerings and oblations mandated, one may see at once that God’s intention was to make it easy for everyone who willed to be able to afford something to give. Whether it be a burnt offering of an animal, an offering of fine flour or in this latter case an offering of first fruits.  And so it was provided, “if you bring an oblation of first fruit, you shall offer it unto the Lord; but they shall not be burnt on the altar for a sweet savor. And when the offering was a first fruit offering for a meal offering, it shall be for the offering green ears of grain, dried by the fire, even grain beaten out of full ears. There shall be put on it oil and frankincense, for a meal offering.
            And the priest shall burn a memorial of it, part of the beaten grain thereof, and part of the oil thereof, with all the frankincense thereof, as an offering made by fire unto the Lord.
