Contextual Overview

14 And, this, is the law of the meal-offering, - the sons of Aaron shall bring it near before Yahweh, unto the front of the altar. 15 Then shall one lift up therefrom a handful of the fine meal of the meal-offering, and of the oil thereof, and all the frankincense which is upon the meal-offering, - and shall make a perfume at the altar, an altar-flame of a satisfying odour, shall the memorial thereof be, unto Yahweh. 16 And the remainder thereof, shall Aaron and his sons eat, - as unleavened cakes, shall it be eaten, in a holy place, within the court of the tent of meeting, shall they eat it. 17 It shall not be baked into anything leavened, as their portion, have I given it, from among the altar-flames of Yahweh, - most holy, it is, like the sin-bearer, and like the guilt-bearer, 18 Any male among the sons of Aaron may eat it, an age-abiding statute to your generations from among the altar-flames of Yahweh, - every one that toucheth them shall be hallowed. 19 And Yahweh spake unto Moses, saying - 20 This, is the oblation of Aaron and his sons, which they shall bring near unto Yahweh in the day when he is anointed, The tenth of an ephah of fine meal, as a continual meal-offering, - half thereof in the morning, and half thereof in the evening; 21 on a pan, with oil, shall it be made when well mingled, shalt thou bring it in, - in baked portions, as a meal-offering in pieces, shalt thou bring it near as a satisfying odour unto Yahweh. 22 And the priest that is anointed in his stead from among his sons, shall prepare it, - it is an age-abiding statute, that unto Yahweh, shall a perfume, of the entire gift, be made: 23 yea, every meal-offering of a priest, shall be, entire - it shall not be eaten.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And the remainder thereof shall Aaron and his sons eat,.... What quantity of fine flour the meat offering consisted of is not said; very probably it was left to the offerer to bring what he would, since it was a freewill offering:

[with] unleavened [bread] shall it be eaten in the holy place; or rather, "unleavened shall it be eaten"; for it cannot well be thought that bread of any sort should be eaten with this offering, which, properly speaking, was itself a bread offering, and so it should be called, rather than a meat offering; and certain it is, that no meat offering was to be made of leaven, but of fine flour unleavened, and so to be eaten, not by the priests in their own houses, but in the tabernacle; not in that part of it properly called the holy place, in distinction from the holy of holies, but as it follows:

in the court of the tabernacle of the congregation they shall eat it; in a room provided in that court for that purpose, as afterwards in the temple.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

See Leviticus 2:1-10; Exodus 29:40-41.

Leviticus 6:16

With unleavened bread shall it be eaten - This should be, it (the remainder) shall be eaten unleavened.
