Menachos 9:3-4

Menachos 9:3

A reviis (i.e., a quarter-log) of water was used in the purification of the metzora (“leper,” but not really) and a reviis of oil was used for a nazir’s offering. A half-log of water was used in the sotah ceremony and a half-log of oil was used in thanksgiving offerings. They used a log to measure the oil for the flour offerings – even if a flour offering was 60 isaron, they took 60 log of oil. Rabbi Eliezer ben Yaakov said that even if a flour offering was 60 isaron, it only requires one log of oil as per Leviticus 14:21, “for a flour offering, and a log of oil” (i.e., a log of oil per flour offering despite its size). Six logs of oil were used for an offering of a bull, four for a ram, and three for a sheep; three and a half log of oil were used to light the Menorah – a half-log per lamp.

Menachos 9:4

The libations of rams may be mixed with the libations of bulls (since they were made with the same ratios of flour and oil), the libations of sheep with those of (other) sheep, those of an individual offering with those of a communal offering, those of today’s sacrifices with those of yesterday’s sacrifices, but one may not mix the libations of sheep with those of bulls or rams (because they use different ratios of flour and oil). If one first combined the ingredients of each flour offering individually and they only subsequently got mixed together, they remain valid; if they got mixed together before the ingredients of each flour offering were combined, they are invalid. Regarding the sheep that was brought with the omer, its libations were not doubled even though its flour offering was doubled (i.e., two isaron of flour were used rather than one but it still took the usual quarter-hin of oil and of wine).
