Context of Leviticus 2:5

3The flour that he did not burn is for the priests. It is very holy. That is because it is part of an offering to the Lord. 4A person must not use yeast if he bakes his gift of grain. He must make cakes or biscuits with flour and oil. He must not use yeast if he cooks his cake on a flat plate. He must make it with flour and oil. 6He must break the cake into pieces. He must pour oil on it. It is a gift to God. 7A person must use flour and oil to cook the cake in a pot.
