30 And the first of all the ^rfirstfruits of all kinds, and every offering of all kinds from all your offerings, shall belong to the priests. You shall also give to the priests the first of your ^sdough, ^tthat a blessing may rest on your house.

16 If the dough offered as ^tfirstfruits is holy, so is the whole lump, and if the root is holy, so are the branches.
