והתניא (ר' שמעון אומר) קומץ ולבונה שחסר כל שהוא פסול תני קורט לבונה שחסר כל שהוא פסול ואיבעית אימא כאן בלבונה הבאה עם המנחה כאן בלבונה הבאה בפני עצמה
But have we not been taught [in another Baraitha]:<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' The words 'R. Simeon says' are deleted by all commentators on the strength of Rashi's remark: 'I believe that R. Simeon is the author of the statement'.');"><sup>1</sup></span> If the handful of frankincense had diminished, no matter how little, it is invalid?<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' There is here a contradiction between the views of R. Simeon, for the view expressed in the second Baraitha is also that of R. Simeon.');"><sup>2</sup></span> - Render: If the [last] grain of frankincense had diminished, no matter how little, it is invalid.
Sefer HaChinukh
From the laws of the commandment is that which they said (Menachot 73b) that if they did not find new [wheat], they can bring it from the [storehouse]; and that one should not bring wheat that descended from the clouds at the outset, because there is a doubt if I call this, “from your inhabitations,” or not. But if he brought it, it is fit. The kneading of the two breads and their forming is outside [the courtyard] and its baking is inside, like all of the meal-offerings. And their baking does not push off [the prohibition of work on] the holiday, as it is stated (Exodus 12:16), “shall be done for you” — and not for the higher realm. The waving of the bread with the lambs of the peace-offerings was done while they were still alive. And the high priest takes one of the loaves, and the second is divided for all of the shifts. And the rest of its details are elucidated in Menachot, Chapters 4, 5, 8 and 11. (See Mishneh Torah, Laws of Daily Offerings and Additional Offerings 8.)
