Leviticus 2:1-3 Grain Offering

1“When anyone brings a grain offering to the LORD, his offering must consist of fine flour. He is to pour olive oil on it, put frankincense on it, 2and bring it to Aaron’s sons the priests. The priest shall take a handful of the flour and oil, together with all the frankincense, and burn this as a memorial portion on the altar, an offering made by fire, a pleasing aroma to the LORD. 3The remainder of the grain offering shall belong to Aaron and his sons; it is a most holy part of the offerings made by fire to the LORD.

The grain offering was an offering of thanksgiving, not an atonement for sin. 
Similar to the original intent of our Thanksgiving, thanking Him for the harvest.
The remainder of the grain was to feed Aaron and his sons because their lives were serving the Lord as priests, it was their full time occupation.

Corruption, why does man corrupt everything? Look at our holidays, their original intent and what they have become and the Israelites also had the same issue!
It’s because our hearts are evil and when we drift away from the Lord we fall, our evil desires takeover.

Blessings, David
