Meat-Offering:
(Heb. minhah), originally a gift of any kind. This Hebrew word came latterly to denote an "unbloody" sacrifice, as opposed to a "bloody" sacrifice. A "drink-offering" generally accompanied it. The law regarding it is given in Lev. 2, and Lev 6:14-23. It was a recognition of the sovereignty of God and of his bounty in giving all earthly blessings (1Ch 29:10-14; Deu 26:5-11). It was an offering which took for granted and was based on the offering for sin. It followed the sacrifice of blood. It was presented every day with the burnt-offering (Exd 29:40,41), and consisted of flour or of cakes prepared in a special way with oil and frankincense.
