How will we reconcile "Al Lechem" - implying that the lambs are on top of the loaves, with "Al Sh'nei Kevasim", which implies the reverse?

1.

Menachos, 62a: The apparent contradiction teaches us that in fact, they are placed side by side whilst waving. 1

2.

Rashi (in Sukah, 37b): Refer to 23:19:1:2. 2 And "Lechem ha'Bikurim ... al Sh'nei Kevasim" means that he actually places the loaves on the two (live) lambs.

1

See Torah Temimah, note 71.

2

It is n ot clear however, how Rashi translates the word "Al".

2)

What is the significance of the phrase "Kodesh Yih'yu la'Hashem la'Kohen"?

1.

Rashi: It teaches us that the two lambs are Kodesh Kodshim 1 and that they must be eaten by Kohanim 2 within the hangings of the Azarah.

1

Rashi: As opposed to Shalmei Yachid, which are Kodshim Kalim and can be eaten by anyone anywhere within the walls of Yerushalayim.

2

See Torah Temmah citing Zevachim, 55a, which learns this from a different source.

3)

Why does the Toah insert the (otherwise superfluous) word "Yih'yu"?

1.

Menachos, 27a: To teach us that the two lambs are crucial - and that one cannot bring just one. 1

2.

Menachos,45b: n conjunction with the word "la'Kohen, it teaches us that the loaves, which are eaten entirely by the Kohen, are crucial to the lambs - but not vice-versa. 2
