What does Exodus 29:2 mean?

The priests being set apart for God's service required special bread made without yeast, which was a sign of purity and readiness. Oil mixed into the bread and spread on the wafers made these offerings rich and generous, showing that worship involved the best ingredients and careful preparation. This wasn't casual or thrown-together, but thoughtful and costly, reflecting the seriousness of approaching God. The fine wheat flour emphasizes that what we bring before God deserves our best effort and finest resources.
