Ibn Ezra on Exodus 29:25/אבן עזרא על שמות כ״ט:כ״ה
אולקחת. כתוב מידם, ובמקום אחר מעל כפיהם (ויקרא ח כח) והדבר שוה:
1AND THOU SHALT TAKE THEM FROM THEIR HANDS. Our verse states, from their hands. Elsewhere Scripture states, from off their hands (Lev. 8:28). They mean the same thing.
בניחוח. כפל החי"ת והמבין סוד נשמת האדם יבין זה:
2A SWEET SAVOUR. The chet is doubled in nicho’ach (sweet savour).98 is nun, vav, chet. There are two chets in nicho’ach. Hence I.E.’s comment. [A SWEET SAVOUR BEFORE THE LORD.] The one who understands the secret of man’s soul99 will understand this.100
גאשה. תואר מגזרת אש ובמקום אחר, מן האש (במד' יח ט):
3AN OFFERING. The word issheh (offering) is an adjective. It is related to the word esh (fire). Scripture elsewhere states, from the fire (Num. 18:9).101 in place of the word issheh. We thus see that they are related.
