במנחות של סולת ובמנחת חוטא וסוטה כתב "וקמץ", כי היה קומץ מלוא היד וכתוב בהם "מלוא קומצו". אבל במנחת מרחשת וכן בפר' צו כתוב "והרים בקומצו", כי במנחות האפויות לא היה קומץ רק מרים בג' אצבעותיו (ויקרא סי' קה. ועיי"ש סימן קלב)

Ayelet Hashachar, translated by Betzalel Avraham Feinstein, 2021

With respect to meal-offerings of fine flour, meal-offerings of a sinner, and Sotah (a woman accused of adultery), it writes וקמץ (grasp)⁶⁶³, because he grasps a handful, and it is written about them מלוא קומצו (his handful)⁶⁶⁴. But with respect to a meal-offering of a stewing-pan and in Leviticus 6:8, it is written והרים בקומצו (And he shall take up therefrom his handful), since a baked meal-offering did not involve a handful but was only taken up with three of his fingers.

footnotes: ⁶⁶³ Leviticus 2:2. ⁶⁶⁴ Ibid.
