We are commanded to follow the procedures and rules detailed in the Torah for presenting a peace offering.

Among the sacrifices there are those which are called thanksgiving-offerings and peace-offerings.

The blood of these offerings must be sprinkled upon the altar before they can be eaten.

This Negative Mitzvah prohibits us from eating these sacrifices before sprinkling their blood upon the altar.

We are commanded to follow the procedures and rules detailed in the Torah for presenting the different types of meal offerings. They include baked, pan, or deep fried meal offerings.

Different types of sacrifices are brought when a person does Teshuvah after having committed a sin.

The sacrifice he must bring depends on the sin committed.

This Negative Mitzvah applies to an offering brought by a person who wishes to do Teshuvah for a sin. Therefore, it is often called a "guilt-offering" (see Positive Mitzvah 72).

Generally, a meal-offering consists of a mixture of wheat flour and olive oil.

Oil is considered a fine liquid, complimenting the flour in this delicate dough.

However, this meal-offering is being brought because the person is asking forgiveness for a sin. Therefore, no oil is mixed with the flour and it is left plain. No oil may be placed in this type of meal-offering.

This Negative Mitzvah applies to the guilt-offering of flour (see above Negative Mitzvah 102).

The flour is to be offered as it is, without any enhancing ingredients. Therefore, we are commanded not to place any frankincense upon this offering.

The meal offering is a mixture of oil and flour.

When a person who is not a priest brings this offering, a priest scoops up a portion (in a special way) and sacrifices it on the altar.

Then, the priests eat the remaining mixture. However, when a priest brings a meal-offering, it must be totally burnt. No one is allowed to eat any of it.
