Core Text — Menachos 60a

״וְהֵבֵאתָ אֶת הַמִּנְחָה״ — מְלַמֵּד שֶׁכָּל הַמִּנְחָה טְעוּנָה הַגָּשָׁה.

English: “And you shall bring the minchah” — this teaches that the entire minchah requires presentation.

In the sugya: The command is understood to apply to the whole offering, not only to the memorial portion.

Type of Learning

Ribbuy of whole-minchah hagashah — the entire offering, not only the kometz, is brought near.

What Is Learned

Not only the kometz but the whole minchah is brought near. The verse’s language “and you shall bring the minchah” teaches that presentation is required for the complete offering, not merely for the handful that will be burned.
