And this [is] the law of the meat offering, etc.] Or the rules to be observed concerning that, for which, though directions are given, (<030201>Leviticus 2:1), etc. yet is here repeated with some additions to it: the sons of Aaron shall offer it before the Lord; being brought unto them by the children of Israel: before the altar; or at the face of it, for what was properly offered was burnt upon it, as in the following verse (<030615>Leviticus 6:15): for it should be rather rendered “in”, or “on the altar” f156; the face of it is the top of it, on which every sacrifice was offered, and not before it.
