英文原文
Le 2:1-16.
THE MEAT OFFERINGS.
1. when any will offer a meat offering--or gift--distinguishing a bloodless from a bloody sacrifice. The word "meat," however, is improper, as its meaning as now used is different from that attached at the date of our English translation. It was then applied not to "flesh," but "food," generally, and here it is applied to the flour of wheat. The meat offerings were intended as a thankful acknowledgment for the bounty of Providence; and hence, although meat offerings accompanied some of the appointed sacrifices, those here described being voluntary oblations, were offered alone.
pour oil upon it--Oil was used as butter is with us; symbolically it meant the influences of the Spirit, of which oil was the emblem, as incense was of prayer.

2. 燒記念的——更當作「作為記念」；即其中的一部分。
英文原文
2. shall burn the memorial--rather, "for a memorial"; that is, a part of it.

3. 素祭所剩的要歸亞倫和他的子孫——這祭有一部分撥歸祭司使用，這一點使它與燔祭有所區別。他們惟獨可在聖所的範圍內食用，因它屬於「至聖之物」。
英文原文
3. the remnant of the meat offering shall be Aaron's and his sons'--The circumstance of a portion of it being appropriated to the use of the priests distinguishes this from a burnt offering. They alone were to partake of it within the sacred precincts, as among "the most holy things."

4. 若用爐中烤的素祭為供物——通常是在地上挖的一個圓洞，深一至五呎，內壁塗以硬灰泥，在其上烤製薄餅狀的餅。（參
Ge 18:6 的註釋）。
東方爐灶的形狀，因各族的遊牧或定居習慣不同而有很大差異。
英文原文
4. if thou bring an oblation of a meat offering baken in the oven--generally a circular hole excavated in the floor, from one to five feet deep, the sides of which are covered with hardened plaster, on which cakes are baked of the form and thickness of pancakes. (See on
Ge 18:6).
The shape of Eastern ovens varies considerably according to the nomadic or settled habits of the people.

5. 用鐵鏊烤的——一塊薄板，通常用銅或鐵製成，放在慢火上，類似蘇格蘭鄉下人烤燕麥餅所稱的「girdle（鐵鏊）」。
英文原文
5. baken in a pan--a thin plate, generally of copper or iron, placed on a slow fire, similar to what the country people in Scotland called a "girdle" for baking oatmeal cakes.

6. 分成塊子，澆上油——將油澆在餅上是東方人常見的做法，他們喜愛將掰碎的餅蘸在油、奶油和奶中。素祭中只用油，可能是出於象徵的原因。顯然這些素祭先前由獻祭者預備好，帶來時祭司要從他手中接過，在壇上焚燒一部分。
英文原文
6. part it in pieces, and pour oil thereon--Pouring oil on bread is a common practice among Eastern people, who are fond of broken bread dipped in oil, butter, and milk. Oil only was used in the meat offerings, and probably for a symbolic reason. It is evident that these meat offerings were previously prepared by the offerer, and when brought, the priest was to take it from his hands and burn a portion on the altar.

11. 凡獻給耶和華的素祭，都不可有酵，也不可有蜜——甜的或酸的都不可獻。在東方炎熱的氣候下，帶酵的餅很快腐壞，因此被視為虛偽或敗壞的象徵。但也有人認為這禁令是因為酵和蜜被用於異教的偶像崇拜儀式中。
英文原文
11. ye shall burn no leaven, nor any honey, in any offering of the Lord--Nothing sweet or sour was to be offered. In the warm climates of the East leavened bread soon spoils, and hence it was regarded as the emblem of hypocrisy or corruption. Some, however, think that the prohibition was that leaven and honey were used in the idolatrous rites of the heathen.

12. 初熟的供物——是個人從自己的出產中自願獻上的供物，這些供物可以使用酵和蜜
(Le 23:17; Nu 15:20)。
它們雖然被帶到壇前，卻不被焚燒，而是神指定歸祭司使用。
英文原文
12. the oblation of the first-fruits--voluntary offerings made by individuals out of their increase, and leaven and honey might be used with these
(Le 23:17; Nu 15:20).
Though presented at the altar, they were not consumed, but assigned by God for the use of the priests.

13. 凡獻為素祭的供物都要用鹽調和——導致禁止用酵的同樣原因，使鹽的使用受到推薦——酵很快腐敗，鹽卻具有強烈的防腐性能，因此它成為不朽與純潔的象徵，也成為永約——完全的和好與持久的友誼——的象徵。在全部律法中，再沒有一條吩咐比這用鹽的吩咐被更聖潔地遵守了；因為除了將在別處提到的其他用途之外，它還有我們的主所論及的預表意義——論到福音對接受者的影響
(Mr 9:49, 50)；
正如鹽大量使用時能防止肉腐敗，照樣福音能保守人免被罪腐蝕。又正如鹽對使祭物蒙神悅納是不可或缺的，照樣福音藉聖靈進入人心，對人獻上自己為活祭也是不可或缺的[BROWN]。
英文原文
13. every . . . meat offering shalt thou season with salt--The same reasons which led to the prohibition of leaven, recommended the use of salt--if the one soon putrefies, the other possesses a strongly preservative property, and hence it became an emblem of incorruption and purity, as well as of a perpetual covenant--a perfect reconciliation and lasting friendship. No injunction in the whole law was more sacredly observed than this application of salt; for besides other uses of it that will be noticed elsewhere, it had a typical meaning referred to by our Lord concerning the effect of the Gospel on those who embrace it
(Mr 9:49, 50);
as when plentifully applied it preserves meat from spoiling, so will the Gospel keep men from being corrupted by sin. And as salt was indispensable to render sacrifices acceptable to God, so the Gospel, brought home to the hearts of men by the Holy Ghost, is indispensably requisite to their offering up of themselves as living sacrifices [BROWN].

14. 初熟的素祭——從「青穗」一詞來看，這似乎是在收割之前的自願祭——穗子按照東方人喜愛的方法，用火烘乾，然後打出來備用。它是為地的出產而獻的早期敬虔感恩祭，按照通常的指示獻上。
英文原文
14. a meat offering of thy first-fruits--From the mention of "green ears," this seems to have been a voluntary offering before the harvest--the ears being prepared in the favorite way of Eastern people, by parching them at the fire, and then beating them out for use. It was designed to be an early tribute of pious thankfulness for the earth's increase, and it was offered according to the usual directions.
Le 2:1-16.
素祭
1. 若有人獻素祭——或作「禮物」——用以區分無血之祭與有血之祭。然而「meat（肉）」一詞並不恰當，因其今日的含義與英文聖經翻譯之時不同。當時此字非指「肉」，而是泛指「食物」，此處乃指小麥之麵粉。素祭乃是為了感恩承認神之眷顧厚恩而獻；因此，雖然素祭有時伴隨某些指定的祭祀而獻，但此處所描述的既為自願之供獻，便是單獨獻上的。
澆油在其上——油之使用，猶如我們今日用奶油一般；就象徵意義而言，它代表聖靈的感動，油即為其表記，正如乳香為禱告之表記。
