Le 2:1
2:1 And when any will offer a {a} meat offering unto the LORD,
    his offering shall be [of] fine flour; and he shall pour oil
    upon it, and put frankincense thereon:

    (a) Because the burnt offering could not be without the meat
        offering.

Le 2:2
2:2 And he shall bring it to Aaron's sons the priests: and {b}
    he shall take thereout his handful of the flour thereof, and
    of the oil thereof, with all the frankincense thereof; and
    the priest shall burn the {c} memorial of it upon the altar,
    [to be] an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the
    LORD:

    (b) The priest.
    (c) To signify that God remembers him that offers.

Le 2:3
2:3 And the remnant of the meat offering [shall be] Aaron's and
    his sons': [it is] a thing {d} most holy of the offerings of
    the LORD made by fire.

    (d) Therefore no one could eat of it but the priest.

Le 2:5
2:5 And if thy oblation [be] a {e} meat offering [baken] in a
    pan, it shall be [of] fine flour unleavened, mingled with
    oil.

    (e) Which is a gift offered to God to pacify him.

Le 2:12
2:12 As for the oblation of the firstfruits, ye shall offer {f}
     them unto the LORD: but they shall not be burnt {g} on the
     altar for a sweet savour.

     (f) That is, fruits which were sweet as honey, ye may
         offer.
     (g) But reserved for the priests.

Le 2:13
2:13 And every oblation of thy meat offering shalt thou season
     with salt; neither shalt thou suffer the salt of the {h}
     covenant of thy God to be lacking from thy meat offering:
     with all thine offerings thou shalt offer salt.

     (h) Which they were bound (as by covenant) to use all
         sacrifices, @Nu 18:19 2Ch 13:5 Eze 43:24 or it
         means a sure and pure covenant.
