Matthew Poole and continuators on Leviticus 23:17

17 Ye shall bring out of your habitations two wave-loaves of two tenth-deals : they shall be of fine flour, they shall be baken with leaven , they are the first-fruits unto the LORD.

(i. e.) Out of the Corn of your own land, for which and for the fruits of it you are now to offer praises unto God. And this also, as well as the former sacrifice, was brought out of the common charge, and in the name of the whole nation, whence it is said to be brought out of their habitations in the plural number. Some conceive two several loaves were brought from every family, or, as others, from every City or Town. But this is easily con[illegible: 1+ letters]uted from ver. 18. where we read that with the br[illegible: 1+ letters]ad, to wit, the two loaves, were to be offered seven Lambs, one bullock, &c. which doubtless was a common oblation and in the name of all.

In double proportion, as before ver. 13.

Because these were not offered to God, but wholly given to the Priests for food. See on Levit. 2. 11. and 7. 13.
