Reference for Menachot 172:2
אף [כל] המנחות היו בדין [וכו']: תנו רבנן (שמות כז, כ) זך אין זך אלא נקי רבי יהודה אומר כתית אין כתית אלא כתוש
R'Judah says. [It is written,] Beaten; [and the expression] 'beaten' means nothing else but pounded.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Sc. in a mortar, but not ground in a mill.');"><sup>4</sup></span> I might then think that this pounded oil is not valid for meal-offerings.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' For Scripture expressly says. Beaten (i.e. pounded) for the light. but for no other purpose.');"><sup>5</sup></span>
