“And he brought the meat offering, and took an handful thereof, and burnt it upon the altar, beside the burnt sacrifice of the morning.”
He also brought the grain offering, took a handful of it and burned it on the altar in addition to the morning burnt offering. The grain offering that accompanies the people's offerings is handled in the same way as the grain offerings of Leviticus 2: a handful burned on the altar as the memorial portion. The grain offering burned in addition to the morning burnt offering communicates that the people's grain offering is added to the daily burnt offering — the regular worship of the community is supplemented by the grain offering's presentation on this inaugural day.
