Context — The Instructions for Peace Offeringsgenerated

12If he offers it in thanksgiving, then along with the sacrifice of thanksgiving he shall offer unleavened cakes mixed with olive oil, unleavened wafers coated with oil, and well-kneaded cakes of fine flour mixed with oil.
13Along with his peace offering of thanksgiving he is to present an offering with cakes of leavened bread.
14From the cakes he must present one portion of each offering as a contribution to the LORD. It belongs to the priest who sprinkles the blood of the peace offering.
15The meat of the sacrifice of his peace offering of thanksgiving must be eaten on the day he offers it; none of it may be left until morning.

Leviticus 7:13 outlines the requirements for presenting a peace offering of thanksgiving, emphasizing the importance of gratitude in worship. This offering is to be accompanied by cakes of leavened bread, which are significant in the context of Israelite sacrificial practices. The surrounding verses provide additional details on the types of offerings and their preparation, highlighting the communal and celebratory aspects of these sacrifices.

The Key Word שְׁלָמָֽיו, she.la.Mavgenerated

The word שְׁלָם (*shelem*) refers to a peace offering, a type of voluntary sacrifice intended to express gratitude and establish a relationship with God. It is derived from a root meaning 'to be complete' or 'to make whole,' indicating that these offerings are acts of thanksgiving meant to celebrate harmony with God.

In this verse, it is used in the construct form, indicating that it belongs to the worshipper. The peace offering is a way to acknowledge God's blessings and to share in a communal meal, reinforcing the bonds between the worshipper and God, as well as among the community.


How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated

This study reads the verse in the Berean Standard Bible, so the BSB is the wording every comparison below is made against.


Sentence Structuregenerated

The finite verb יַקְרִ֖יב (*yakriv*), meaning 'he will present,' governs the main action of the verse. The structure includes a prepositional phrase indicating the type of offering, followed by a noun phrase describing the specific items being presented.

The Hebrew word order places emphasis on the offering itself, with the cakes of leavened bread being a significant detail that follows the main action, indicating their importance in the ritual.


Septuagint Backgroundgenerated

The Septuagint translates שְׁלָמָֽיו as σωτηρίου (*sōtēriou*), which means 'of salvation' or 'of deliverance.' This choice suggests a broader interpretation of the peace offering, linking it to themes of wholeness and restoration.

The Greek rendering reflects the significance of the offering not only as a means of thanksgiving but also as a representation of the worshipper's relationship with God.


In plain words — the whole versegenerated

Leviticus 7:13 explains that when someone offers a peace offering to thank God, they must also bring cakes made with leavened bread. This shows the importance of gratitude in worship and the specific requirements for offerings.

These had all to be baked before the victim was slaughtered. The only other occasion when leavened bread formed part of the offering was on Pentecost (Leviticus 23:17); but no portion of it was burnt on the altar as a memorial, for leaven was forbidden to be on the altar. (See Leviticus 2:11-12.)

According to Amos 4:5, leaven was brought with a thanksgiving offering, and the two wave loaves offered at the Feast of Weeks (Leviticus 23:17) were ‘baken with leaven.’ If ‘with’ (i.e. the first ‘al of Lev 7:13 in the passage from Wellh. quoted above), be omitted, then the rendering would be ‘cakes of leavened bread shall he bring as his oblation in addition to the sacrifice of his peace offerings…

ov:

(1) In Anglo-Saxon, had the meaning "from," "away from" (as the strengthened form "off" has still), and was not used for genitive or possessive relations, these being expressed by special case-forms. In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.

lev'-n (se'or, chamets; zume; Latin fermentum): The nomadic ancestors of the Hebrews, like the Bedouin of today, probably made their bread without leaven; but leaven came to play a great part in their bread-making, their law and ritual, and their religious teaching (see Ex 12:15,19; 13:7; Le 2:11; De 16:4; Mt 13:33; 16:6-12; Mr 8:15 f; Lu 12:1; 13:21).

The form of leaven used in bread-making and the method of using it were simple and definite. The "leaven" consisted always, so far as the evidence goes, of a piece of fermented dough kept over from a…

Easton's Bible Dictionary

Leaven

(1.) Heb. seor (Ex. 12:15, 19; 13:7; Lev. 2:11), the remnant of dough from the preceding baking which had fermented and become acid.

(2.) Heb. hamets, properly “ferment.” In Num. 6:3, “vinegar of wine” is more correctly “fermented wine.” In Ex. 13:7, the proper rendering would be, “Unfermented things [Heb. matstsoth] shall be consumed during the seven days; and there shall not be seen with thee fermented things [hamets], and there shall not be seen with thee leavened mass [seor] in all thy borders.” The chemical definition of ferment or yeast is “a substance in a state of putrefaction, the atoms of which are in a continual motion.”

Smith's Bible Dictionary

Various substances were known to have fermenting qualities; but the ordinary leaven consisted of a lump of old dough in a high state of fermentation, which was mixed into the mass of dough prepared for baking. The use of leaven was strictly forbidden in all offerings made to the Lord by fire. During the passover the Jews were commanded to put every particle of leaven from the house. The most prominent idea associated with leaven in connection with the corruption which it had undergone,a nd which it communicated to bread in the process of fermentation. It is to this property of leaven that our Saviour points when he speaks of the "leaven (i.e. the corrupt doctrine) of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees," (Matthew 16:6) and St. Paul, when he speaks of the "old leaven." (1 Corinthians…

Sourdough which is kept over from one baking to another, in order to raise the new dough. Leaven was forbidden in the Hebrews during the seven days of the Passover, in memory of what their ancestors did when they went out of Egypt, they being then obliged to carry unleavened meal with them, and to make bread in haste, the Egyptians pressing them to be gone, Ex 12:15,19. They were very careful in cleansing their houses from it before this feast began, 1Co 5:6. God forbade either leaven or honey to be offered to him in his temple, Le 2:11. The pervading and transforming effect of leaven is used in illustration of the like influence on society, exerted by the purifying principles of the gospel, or by false doctrines and corrupt…
