Lev 7:13 Besides the cakes, he shall offer [for] his offering leavened bread with the sacrifice of thanksgiving of his peace offerings.
Ver. 13. Leavened bread.] Lo, leavened bread will pass in a peace offering: God for Christ’s sake rejects not the services of his saints, though tainted with corruption. Peccata nobis non nocent, si non placent. {a} Wine is not thrown away for the dregs, nor gold for the dirt that cleaves unto it.

Leavened bread; partly, because this was a sacrifice of another kind than those in which leaven was forbidden, this being a sacrifice of thanksgiving for God’s blessings, among which leavened bread was one; partly, to show that leaven was not so strictly forbidden in other sacrifices, as if it were evil in itself, but to teach us wholly to rest in the will of God in all his appointments, without too scrupulous an inquiry into the particular reasons of them.
Object. Leaven was universally forbidden, Lev 2:11.

Answ. 1. That prohibition concerned only things offered and burnt upon the altar, which this bread was not, but it was offered only towards the priest’s food.
2. That was another kind of sacrifice, and therefore it is no wonder if it had other rites.
3. That leaven was not universally forbidden appears from Lev 23:17.
With the sacrifice of thanksgiving of his peace-offerings, or, with the sacrifice of thanksgiving for his peace or prosperity.

And of it he shall offer one out of the whole oblation for an heave offering unto the Lord,.... That is, one out of the unleavened cakes, and out of the unleavened wafers, and out of the cakes fried, and out of the cakes leavened; lo, says Aben Ezra, four at least, and the truth is, adds he, there were ten; and so Maimonides (h) says, the priest took out of all the four cakes, one out of every sort, as it is said, "and of it he shall offer one", &c.
and it shall be the priest's that sprinkleth the blood of the peace offerings; that is, that part of the cakes and bread, which is offered as an heave offering to the Lord, was the portion of the priests; and so Maimonides (i) says,"the bread waved (rather heaved) with the thank offering was eaten by the priests, and the rest of the bread by the owners.''

13. With cakes of leavened bread he shall offer his oblation] The cakes described in Lev_7:12 form the oblation; besides these he is to bring leavened cakes, which are not intended for the altar (see Lev_2:11) but are similar in character to the offering mentioned in Lev_2:12. According to Amo_4:5, leaven was brought with a thanksgiving offering, and the two wave loaves offered at the Feast of Weeks (Lev_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 for thanksgiving,’ and ‘his oblation’ would then refer to the leavened cakes of Lev_7:13. The same reference is made in the rendering of A.V., but it is doubtful whether ‘besides the cakes’ can be taken as a translation of the existing Mass. text.

(13) Besides the cakes.—That is, the thirty un leavened cakes which were made of half of the quantity of the flour brought by the offerer, as described in the previous verse, the ten leavened cakes made of the other half of the flour are to be brought. 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 (Lev_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 Lev_2:11-12.)

Leavened bread was not to be offered on the altar, for a reason before assigned; but, though not offered on the altar, it may yet be consecrated to God, not by burning, but by heaving. Thus there are lives which cannot be wholly devoted to God and his active service, and yet can be consecrated to him. Leavened bread was the bread commonly used, and the secular life of a man engaged daily in the occupations of politics, or of business, or of labour, may be sanctified, and, being sanctified, may be accepted by God as freely and fully as are those directly given up to his especial service.

leaven
The use of leaven here is significant. Peace with God is something which the believer shares with God. Christ is our peace-offering Eph 2:13. Any thanksgiving for peace must, first of all, present Him. In Lev 7:12 we have this, in type, and so leaven is excluded. In Lev 7:13 it is the offerer who gives thanks for his participation in the peace, and so leaven fitly signifies, that though having peace with God through the work of another, there is still evil in him. This is illustrated in Amo 4:5 where the evil in Israel is before God.
