The minchah-offering of Kohanim, and the minchah-offering of the Anointed Kohen, and the libation minchah-offering belong to the Altar, and the Kohanim have no [share] in them. In this, the right of the Altar is greater than the right of the Kohanim. The shtei halechem and the lechem hapanim belong to the Kohanim, and the Altar has no share in them. In this, the right of the Kohanim is greater than the right of the Altar.

All minchah-offerings which are prepared in a vessel require three applications of oil: pouring, mixing, and placing oil in the vessel prior to their preparation. The challos, [however,] one mixes them; [these are] the words of Rabbi. But the Sages say: [As] fine flour. The challos require mixing and the rekikin are anointed. How are they anointed? Like a chi. The remainder of the oil is eaten by the Kohanim.

All minchah-offerings which are prepared in a vessel require breaking into pieces. The minchah-offering of a Yisrael one folds in two and the two into four, and separates [them]. The minchahoffering of the Kohanim one folds in two and the two into four, and one does not separate them. The minchah-offering of the Anointed Kohen he did not fold. R’ Shimon says: The minchah-offering of the Kohanim and the minchah-offering of the Anointed Kohen are not broken into pieces, since they do not require kemitzah; and whatever does not require kemitzah need not be broken into pieces. All of them are an olive’s volume.

All minchah-offerings require three hundred rubbings and five hundred poundings; and the rubbings and poundings are to the wheat. R’ Yose says: [Even] to the dough. All minchah-offerings are brought in groups of ten [loaves], except for the lechem hapanim and the chavitin of the Kohen Gadol, which are brought in [groups of] twelve; [these are] the words of R’ Yehudah. R’ Meir says: They are all brought in groups of twelve [loaves], except for the loaves of the todah-[offering] and the nazir’s [offering], which are brought in groups of ten.
