From the cakes
The Hebrew word for "cakes" is "challah," which refers to a type of bread or cake made from fine flour. In the context of Leviticus, these cakes are part of the grain offerings that accompany the peace offerings. The use of "cakes" signifies the offering of the best produce of the land, symbolizing gratitude and acknowledgment of God's provision. Historically, bread has been a staple in the diet of the Israelites, representing sustenance and life. Offering cakes to God is an act of worship, recognizing Him as the ultimate provider.

he is to present
The act of presenting an offering is a deliberate and conscious act of worship. The Hebrew root "qarab" means to bring near or to offer. This signifies the worshiper's desire to draw near to God, acknowledging His holiness and seeking His favor. The presentation of offerings was a central part of Israelite worship, emphasizing the importance of approaching God with reverence and intentionality.

one as an offering
The specification of "one" highlights the principle of giving a portion back to God from what He has provided. The Hebrew word "terumah" is often used for offerings, indicating something lifted up or set apart for God. This act of setting apart a portion for God is a reminder of His sovereignty and the need for His people to honor Him with their firstfruits. It reflects a heart of gratitude and obedience, recognizing that all blessings come from Him.

to the LORD
The phrase "to the LORD" underscores the direction and purpose of the offering. The Hebrew name used here is "Yahweh," the covenant name of God, emphasizing His personal relationship with His people. Offerings were not merely ritualistic but were acts of devotion to Yahweh, the one true God. This relationship is central to the covenant between God and Israel, where offerings serve as a means of maintaining fellowship and expressing loyalty to Him.

it belongs to the priest
The portion given to the priest signifies the provision for those who serve in the temple. The Hebrew word "kohen" refers to the priest, who acts as a mediator between God and the people. By providing for the priest, the community supports the spiritual leadership and ensures the continuation of worship and sacrificial practices. This reflects the principle of sustaining those who dedicate their lives to God's service, acknowledging their role in maintaining the spiritual health of the nation.

who sprinkles the blood
The act of sprinkling blood is a critical component of the sacrificial system. The Hebrew word "zarak" means to scatter or sprinkle, and it is a symbolic act of atonement and purification. Blood represents life, and its sprinkling on the altar signifies the cleansing of sin and the restoration of fellowship with God. This act points to the seriousness of sin and the necessity of atonement, foreshadowing the ultimate sacrifice of Christ, whose blood would be shed for the redemption of humanity.

of the peace offerings
The "peace offerings," or "shelamim" in Hebrew, are offerings that symbolize reconciliation and fellowship with God. These offerings express gratitude, fulfillment of vows, or voluntary acts of worship. The peace offering is unique in that it is shared between the altar, the priest, and the offerer, symbolizing communion with God and community. It highlights the holistic nature of worship, involving God, His servants, and His people in a harmonious relationship.

(14) And of it he shall offer one out of the whole.--Better, and he shall offer of it one out of each. That is, the officiating priest waves one of each of the four kinds of cakes before the Lord as a heave offering (see Exodus 29:24; Exodus 29:28), and is to have these four loaves as his portion, while the rest or the remaining thirty-six cakes belonged to the owner of the sacrifice.
