From the Rebbe’s Father
Tzav
And this is the law of the meal-offering
6:7
Talmud Menochos 104B
Rabbi Yitzḥak says: What is the reason that the meal offering is differentiated from other offerings in that the Torah stated these five types of preparations with oil with regard to it?
The five types of voluntary meal offerings are: A meal offering of fine flour, a meal offering in a shallow pan, a meal offering in a deep pan, a meal offering of loaves baked in an oven, and a meal offering of wafers baked in an oven. All are brought with oil.
This can be explained by a parable of a flesh-and-blood king whose friend made a festive meal for him, but the king knows that the friend is poor.
The king said to him: Make for me foods from five types of fried dishes, so that I may benefit from you.
