Burnt offerings were made on a purely voluntary basis.
There was an opportunity for all to participate regardless of wherewithal. In descending order of wealth, the offerings were:
-Bullock
-Sheep (or goat)
-Fowl
-Grain
However, Yahweh demanded only the best produce to be offered. With the grain offerings no leaven or honey were permitted. These commodities allowed fermentation which is associated with corruption (Matt 16:6).
Salt was to be included in the offerings, however. Salt is a sign of the covenant. The nature of salt is that it is hygroscopic (i.e. takes moisture from the air). In doing so, it symbolizes the absorption of the Word (John 4:10-14). Thus, those who lose their desire to absorb the Word become useless spiritually (Matt 5:13).
And so we can conclude that we ought to gladly volunteer our best offerings to Yahweh by way of service (2Cor 9:7). They should be without corruption and be fully persuaded by the Word. Then we shall remain in covenant relationship with our God.

I think our 'Frankincense' is our sincerity of heart that then is what makes our offerings and our prayers 'A Sweet Smelling Savour' to our Heavenly Father

Leviticus 1 – introduces us to the details of the burnt offering. From the details given we can conclude that this offering was a sacrifice of dedication to the Lord. This offering was fulfilled in the life and death of Jesus.
The burnt offering points us forward to the sacrifice of Jesus and his example of dedication to do His Father’s will. This is an example for the Ecclesia and all its members.

Leviticus 2 – introduces us to the details of the “meat offering” (KJV). See Strong’s <4503>, meaning ‘apportion’ or give ‘donation’. From the details given we can conclude that this food offering was prepared and burnt on the altar by the priest to the Lord for a memorial.

Lev.1:1-4 The Lord’s first command coming from the now completed Tabernacle was for Israel to bring their own burnt offerings to the Lord in order to be accepted and for atonement. This was a voluntary offering. Such is the requirement of the Lord from each of us. When we commit ourselves to the Lord through baptism, to be accepted, we must embrace His commandments. Jesus said “Thou shalt love the Lord our God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment.”(Matt.22:37-38).

Corn in the days of the publication of the KJV is a general term that in that time meant grain. Many people will put the mention of corn in the Bible as proof that the Bible was written after maize corn was discovered in the Americas.

LOOK TO THE LORD
I am told that the Hebrew in the first two books of the Old Testament has an interesting pattern in it. Every 49th letter is made up in a skip letter sequence that spells TORAH (in Hebrew, of course). This pattern only occurs in Genesis and Exodus. However, if we skip over to Numbers and Deuteronomy, we find a different pattern. It is the same word TORAH (the Hebrew word for the law), but this time it spelt backwards HAROT every 49th letter.
That leaves Leviticus. It’s like the first two books are pointing forward to something important and the latter two are pointing back to something important. But we don’t find the word TORAH in Leviticus. Instead, in a 49 skip letter sequence (7 x 7), we find the YHWH, the memorial name of God encoded through the text. The message is that the law points to God whatever way you look at it.
With this in mind, it is highly appropriate that Leviticus begins with the law of the burnt offering. The burnt offering is the offering that was completely dedicated to God and speaks of our complete commitment to him. It also speaks of God’s complete devotion to us shown in Jesus Christ. Jesus gave up everything in life while he lived so that we could see and learn the way to God, and then he gave up his life completely so that we could have life.
As we read Leviticus, let’s look for God in it. Let’s see his love for us, and the pattern of devotion we should have for him.

Psalm 103 This wonderful Psalm gives a number of reasons why we should bless the Lord. We should reflect on each of these reasons as we read the Psalm.
Peter Forbes [Mountsorrel (UK)] Comment added in 2001 Reply to Peter
This is a psalm of great consolation. We come and go but Yahweh is everlasting. And yet He is merciful in overlooking our sins. He knows we are weak and incapable and yet He has pity on us. He offers us life where we deserve death. How great is our God and worthy to be praised!
Michael Parry [Montreal (Can)] Comment added in 2004 Reply to Michael
Ellicott’s commentary says that “this psalm has been compared to a stream which as it flows gradually acquires strength and volume until its waves of praise swell like those of the sea”. I think this is a great way to think of this psalm, this sublime piece of poetry. Notice how the poet gives a very personal flavour right at the beginning “Bless the Lord O my soul.” Then after taking us on a dizzying journey and showing us the great love and mercy of Almighty God, he ends with the same words “Bless the Lord O my soul.”

2. Bless <1288>(8761) the LORD <3068>, O my soul <5315>, and forget <7911>(8799) not all his benefits <1576>:

Notes that are not verse specific
For Paul to devote 13 verses to the subject of head coverings suggests this was a very important issue. Much of the debate nowadays seems to be centred on whether or not women should wear hats, but perhaps the main issue was actually to do with the men? To understand the subject better we need to look back to the traditions in force at the time. Then both Jewish men and women worshipped God with heads covered. The Romans also (men and women) worshipped their gods with heads covered, but the Greeks worshipped their gods with heads uncovered. As the Ecclesia at Corinth would be made up of people from various traditions, it could be there was a mix of practices, and so Paul needed to lay down rules so everything would be done in an orderly manner, and equally importantly so those looking at the Ecclesia from the outside would see this to be the case. For the women the rule to wear a veil would not be so hard, as it was the accepted practice for everyday life. Indeed it would be seen as a shocking thing for a woman to appear on the streets without a veil. Tantamount to having her head shaved, which was the punishment for prostitution. The main change was for the men, who now they had put on Christ were not to worship with head covered, thus showing their reverence for him, and acknowledging Him as their head. How does this translate to our day? Well certainly it is still very important that all things are done decently and in order, not just for us, but also for those that look at us to see the example we set. Verse 10 may help those who are not sure, where the RV has the words "a sign of authority." Perhaps as the men and women are now one in Christ and the men no longer wear anything to show authority, the women now have this role on behalf of both the men and the women? Galatians 3:28 tells us "there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ."

6. For <1063> if <1487> the woman <1135> be <2619> <0> not <3756> covered <2619>(5743), let her <2751> <0> also <2532> be shorn <2751>(5669): but <1161> if <1487> it be a shame <149> for a woman <1135> to be shorn <2751>(5670) or <2228> shaven <3587>(5745), let her be covered <2619>(5744).
7. For <1063> a man <435> indeed <3303> ought <3784>(5719) not <3756> to cover <2619>(5745) his head <2776>, forasmuch as he is <5225>(5723) the image <1504> and <2532> glory <1391> of God <2316>: but <1161> the woman <1135> is <2076>(5748) the glory <1391> of the man <435>.
8. For <1063> the man <435> is <2076>(5748) not <3756> of <1537> the woman <1135>; but <235> the woman <1135> of <1537> the man <435>.
9. <1063> <2532> Neither <3756> was <2936> <0> the man <435> created <2936>(5681) for <1223> the woman <1135>; but <235> the woman <1135> for <1223> the man <435>.
10. For this <5124> cause <1223> ought <3784>(5719) the woman <1135> to have <2192>(5721) power <1849> on <1909> her head <2776> because <1223> of the angels <32>.
11. Nevertheless <4133> neither <3777> is the man <435> without <5565> the woman <1135>, neither <3777> the woman <1135> without <5565> the man <435>, in <1722> the Lord <2962>.
12. For <1063> as <5618> the woman <1135> is of <1537> the man <435>, even so <3779> is the man <435> also <2532> by <1223> the woman <1135>; but <1161> all things <3956> of <1537> God <2316>.
13. Judge <2919>(5657) in <1722> yourselves <5213> <846>: is it <2076>(5748) comely <4241>(5723) that a woman <1135> pray <4336>(5738) unto God <2316> uncovered <177>?
14. Doth <2228> not even <3761> nature <5449> itself <846> teach <1321>(5719) you <5209>, that <3754>, if <1437> <3303> a man <435> have long hair <2863>(5725), it is <2076>(5748) a shame <819> unto him <846>?
15. But <1161> if <1437> a woman <1135> have long hair <2863>(5725), it is <2076>(5748) a glory <1391> to her <846>: for <3754> her hair <2864> is given <1325>(5769) her <846> for <473> a covering <4018>.
16. But <1161> if any man <1536> seem <1380>(5719) to be <1511>(5750) contentious <5380>, we <2249> have <2192>(5719) no <3756> such <5108> custom <4914>, neither <3761> the churches <1577> of God <2316>.
17. Now <1161> in this <5124> that I declare <3853>(5723) unto you I praise <1867>(5719) you not <3756>, that <3754> ye come together <4905>(5736) not <3756> for <1519> the better <2909>, but <235> for <1519> the worse <2276>.
18. For <1063> <3303> first of all <4412>, when ye <5216> come together <4905>(5740) in <1722> the church <1577>, I hear <191>(5719) that there be <5225>(5721) divisions <4978> among <1722> you <5213>; and <2532> I partly <3313> believe <4100>(5719) it <5100>.
19. For <1063> there must <1163>(5748) be <1511>(5750) also <2532> heresies <139> among <1722> you <5213>, that <2443> they which are approved <1384> may be made <1096>(5638) manifest <5318> among <1722> you <5213>.
20. When ye <5216> come together <4905>(5740) therefore <3767> into <1909> one place <846>, this is <2076>(5748) not <3756> to eat <5315>(5629) the Lord's <2960> supper <1173>.
21. For <1063> in <1722> eating <5315>(5629) every one <1538> taketh before <4301>(5719) other his own <2398> supper <1173>: and <2532> one <3303> is hungry <3983>(5719), and <1161> another <3739> is drunken <3184>(5719).
22. What <1063>? have ye <2192>(5719) not <3378> houses <3614> to eat <2068>(5721) and <2532> to drink <4095>(5721) in <1519>? or <2228> despise ye <2706>(5719) the church <1577> of God <2316>, and <2532> shame <2617>(5719) them that have <2192>(5723) not <3361>? What <5101> shall I say <2036>(5632) to you <5213>? shall I praise <1867>(5661) you <5209> in <1722> this <5129>? I praise <1867>(5719) you not <3756>.
23. For <1063> I <1473> have received <3880>(5627) of <575> the Lord <2962> that which <3739> also <2532> I delivered <3860>(5656) unto you <5213>, That <3754> the Lord <2962> Jesus <2424> the same night <3571> in <1722> which <3739> he was betrayed <3860>(5712) took <2983>(5627) bread <740>:
24. And <2532> when he had given thanks <2168>(5660), he brake <2806>(5656) it, and <2532> said <2036>(5627), Take <2983>(5628), eat <5315>(5628): this <5124> is <2076>(5748) my <3450> body <4983>, which <3588> is broken <2806>(5746) for <5228> you <5216>: this <5124> do <4160>(5720) in <1519> remembrance <364> of me <1699>.
25. After the same manner <5615> also <2532> he took the cup <4221>, when <3326> he had supped <1172>(5658), saying <3004>(5723), This <5124> cup <4221> is <2076>(5748) the new <2537> testament <1242> in <1722> my <1699> blood <129>: this <5124> do ye <4160>(5720), as oft as <3740> <302> ye drink <4095>(5725) it, in <1519> remembrance <364> of me <1699>.
26. For <1063> as often as <302> <3740> ye eat <2068>(5725) this <5126> bread <740>, and <2532> drink <4095>(5725) this <5124> cup <4221>, ye do shew <2605>(5719) the Lord's <2962> death <2288> till <891> <302> he <3739> come <2064>(5632).
27. Wherefore <5620> whosoever <3739> <302> shall eat <2068>(5725) this <5126> bread <740>, and <2228> drink <4095>(5725) this cup <4221> of the Lord <2962>, unworthily <371>, shall be <2071>(5704) guilty <1777> of the body <4983> and <2532> blood <129> of the Lord <2962>.
28. But <1161> let <1381> <0> a man <444> examine <1381>(5720) himself <1438>, and <2532> so <3779> let him eat <2068>(5720) of <1537> that bread <740>, and <2532> drink <4095>(5720) of <1537> that cup <4221>.
29. For <1063> he that eateth <2068>(5723) and <2532> drinketh <4095>(5723) unworthily <371>, eateth <2068>(5719) and <2532> drinketh <4095>(5719) damnation <2917> to himself <1438>, not <3361> discerning <1252>(5723) the Lord's <2962> body <4983>.
30. For <1223> <0> this <5124> cause <1223> many <4183> are weak <772> and <2532> sickly <732> among <1722> you <5213>, and <2532> many <2425> sleep <2837>(5743).
31. For <1063> if <1487> we would judge <1252>(5707) ourselves <1438>, we should <302> not <3756> be judged <2919>(5712).
32. But <1161> when we are judged <2919>(5746), we are chastened <3811>(5743) of <5259> the Lord <2962>, that <3363> <0> we should <2632> <0> not <3363> be condemned <2632>(5686) with <4862> the world <2889>.
33. Wherefore <5620>, my <3450> brethren <80>, when ye come together <4905>(5740) to <1519> eat <5315>(5629), tarry <1551>(5737) one for another <240>.
34. And <1161> if any man <1536> hunger <3983>(5719), let him eat <2068>(5720) at <1722> home <3624>; that <3363> <0> ye come <4905> <0> not <3363> together <4905>(5741) unto <1519> condemnation <2917>. And <1161> the rest <3062> will I set in order <1299>(5695) when <5613> <302> I come <2064>(5632).
