Commentary:

to be consumed
  Literally 'bread,' lechem in Hebrew. Some say that this denotes something acceptable before God (Saadia). According to others it denotes 'food' (Ibn Ezra), 'flesh' (Ibn Janach; Radak), or 'fuel for the fire' (Rashi; Hirsch). It might be called a 'bread offering' because part of it was eaten; but see Numbers 28:2. It may also denote 'spiritual food.'
