Offerings. Heb. minchoth, in the Levitical law referring to grain offerings (see on Lev. 2:1). In a more general sense minchah means “present” and is used of Abel’s offering (Gen. 4:3, 4), and of Jacob’s gift of appeasement (Gen. 32:13).

Burnt sacrifice. Heb. ‘olah, an offering in which the victim was completely burned (see Vol. I, p. 698; see on Lev. 1:3).

Selah. See p. 629.
