12 And the fire on the altar shall be kept burning on it; it shall not be put out. And the priest shall burn wood on it every morning, and lay the burnt offering in order on it; and he shall burn on it the afat of the peace offerings.
13 A fire shall always be burning on the aaltar; it shall never go out.
The Law of the Grain Offering
14 ‘This is the law of the grain offering: The sons of Aaron shall offer it on the altar before the Lord.
15 He shall take from it his handful of the fine flour of the grain offering, with its oil, and all the frankincense which is on the grain offering, and shall burn it on the altar for a sweet aroma, as a memorial to the Lord.
16 And the remainder of it Aaron and his sons shall eat; with unleavened bread it shall be eaten in a holy place; in the court of the tabernacle of meeting they shall eat it.
17 It shall not be baked with leaven. I have given it as their1 portion of My offerings made by fire; it is most holy, like the sin offering and the atrespass offering.
18aAll the males among the children of Aaron may eat it. bIt shall be a statute forever in your generations concerning the offerings made by fire to the Lord. cEveryone who touches them must be holy.’ ”
20a“This is the offering of Aaron and his sons, which they shall offer to the Lord, beginning on the day when he is anointed: one-tenth of an bephah of fine flour as a daily grain offering, half of it in the morning and half of it at night.
21 It shall be made in a apan with oil. When it is mixed, you shall bring it in. The baked pieces of the grain offering you shall offer for a1 sweet aroma to the Lord.
22 The priest from among his sons, awho is anointed in his place, shall offer it. It is a statute forever to the Lord. bIt shall be wholly burned.
23 For every grain offering for the priest shall be wholly burned. It shall not be eaten.”
25 “Speak to Aaron and to his sons, saying, ‘This is the law of the sin offering: aIn the place where the burnt offering is killed, the sin offering shall be killed before the Lord. It is most holy.
this is the law of the meat offering—Though this was a provision for the priests and their families, it was to be regarded as "most holy"; and the way in which it was prepared was: on any meat offerings being presented, the priest carried them to the altar, and taking a handful from each of them as an oblation, he salted and burnt it on the altar; the residue became the property of the priests, and was the food of those whose duty it was to attend on the service. They themselves as well as the vessels from which they ate were typically holy, and they were not at liberty to partake of the meat offering while they labored under any ceremonial defilement.
