It symbolized the dedication of the fruits of human labor to God, acknowledging His provision. This offering was typically made from the firstfruits of the harvest, emphasizing gratitude and reliance on God for sustenance.of two-tenths of an ephah of fine flour An ephah was a unit of dry measure used in ancient Israel, roughly equivalent to 22 liters or about 5.8 gallons. Two-tenths of an ephah would be approximately 4.4 liters or 1.16 gallons. The use of fine flour indicates the quality and purity required for offerings to God, symbolizing the best of what one has to offer.mixed with oil Oil was a common element in offerings, representing richness and the presence of the Holy Spirit. Mixing oil with the flour could symbolize the anointing and sanctification of the offering, setting it apart for holy use. Oil was also a staple in the diet and economy of the region, further emphasizing the offering's value.a food offering to the LORD Food offerings were a central part of worship in the Old Testament, serving as a means of fellowship between God and His people. These offerings were not consumed by the offerer but were wholly given to God, signifying total devotion and surrender.a pleasing aroma The phrase "a pleasing aroma" is frequently used in the Old Testament to describe sacrifices that are acceptable to God. It signifies God's satisfaction with the offering, which is not based on the physical smell but on the heart and obedience of the worshiper. This concept is echoed in the New Testament, where Christ's sacrifice is described as a "fragrant offering" to God (<a href="/ephesians/5-2.htm">Ephesians 5:2</a>).and its drink offering of a quarter hin of wine A hin was a unit of liquid measure, approximately 3.8 liters or 1 gallon. A quarter hin would be about 0.95 liters or 1 quart. The drink offering, often wine, was poured out as an act of worship and dedication. Wine, a symbol of joy and celebration, also points to the future Messianic banquet and the blood of Christ, which would be poured out for the forgiveness of sins.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <a href="/topical/t/the_lord.htm">The LORD (Yahweh)</a> The central figure to whom the offerings are made, representing the covenant relationship between God and Israel. 2. <a href="/topical/i/israelites.htm">Israelites</a> The people of God who are commanded to observe these offerings as part of their worship and obedience. 3. <a href="/topical/g/grain_offering.htm">Grain Offering</a> A specific type of offering made with fine flour and oil, symbolizing dedication and thanksgiving to God. 4. <a href="/topical/d/drink_offering.htm">Drink Offering</a> A libation of wine poured out as part of the sacrificial system, symbolizing joy and celebration in God's presence. 5. <a href="/topical/t/tabernacle/temple.htm">Tabernacle/Temple</a> The place where these offerings were made, representing God's dwelling among His people.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><a href="/topical/u/understanding_the_sacrificial_system.htm">Understanding the Sacrificial System</a> The grain and drink offerings were integral to Israel's worship, symbolizing dedication, thanksgiving, and joy in God's presence. <a href="/topical/s/symbolism_of_the_offerings.htm">Symbolism of the Offerings</a> The fine flour and oil represent purity and the work of the Holy Spirit, while the wine signifies joy and celebration in God's provision. <a href="/topical/c/christ_as_the_fulfillment.htm">Christ as the Fulfillment</a> Jesus Christ is the ultimate fulfillment of the sacrificial system, offering Himself as the perfect sacrifice for our sins. <a href="/topical/l/living_sacrifices.htm">Living Sacrifices</a> As believers, we are called to offer our lives as living sacrifices, dedicating ourselves wholly to God's service. <a href="/topical/j/joyful_worship.htm">Joyful Worship</a> Our worship should be characterized by joy and gratitude, reflecting the spirit of the drink offering.<div class="vheading2">Lists and Questions</div><a href="/top10/lessons_from_leviticus_23.htm">Top 10 Lessons from Leviticus 23</a> <a href="/q/biblical_weights_and_measures.htm">What are the Biblical weights and measures?</a> <a href="/q/why_is_numbers_31's_warfare_approach_unique.htm">Numbers 31 compared to earlier laws in Exodus and Leviticus: Why does this narrative's approach to warfare seem inconsistent with other divine commandments?</a> <a href="/q/why_is_'pleasing_aroma'_significant.htm">In Leviticus 1:9, why is a 'pleasing aroma' significant to an omnipotent, immaterial God?</a> <a href="/q/what's_'aroma_of_the_sacrifice'.htm">What is the meaning of Aroma of the Sacrifice?</a><a name="commentary" id="commentary"></a><div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/ellicott/leviticus/23.htm">Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers</a></div>(13) Two tenth deals of fine flour.--Ordinarily only one-tenth deal of fine Hour was required for a meat-offering (<a href="/exodus/29-40.htm" title="And with the one lamb a tenth deal of flour mingled with the fourth part of an hin of beaten oil; and the fourth part of an hin of wine for a drink offering.">Exodus 29:40</a>; <a href="/numbers/15-4.htm" title="Then shall he that offers his offering to the LORD bring a meat offering of a tenth deal of flour mingled with the fourth part of an hin of oil.">Numbers 15:4</a>; <a href="/numbers/28-9.htm" title="And on the sabbath day two lambs of the first year without spot, and two tenth deals of flour for a meat offering, mingled with oil, and the drink offering thereof:">Numbers 28:9</a>; <a href="/numbers/28-13.htm" title="And a several tenth deal of flour mingled with oil for a meat offering to one lamb; for a burnt offering of a sweet smell, a sacrifice made by fire to the LORD.">Numbers 28:13</a>, &c.), to exhibit the plentiful harvest.
