Menachos 11:1 - 11:2

שתי הלחם. לחם הפנים נילוש אחת אחת – as it is written concerning it (Leviticus 24:5): “[You shall take choice flour and bake of it twelve loaves,] two-tenths of a measure for each loaf,” which teaches that they are kneaded one by one. And from where [do we learn] that their baking is two at a time? The inference teaches us (Leviticus 24:6): “Place them/ושמת אותם [on the pure table before the LORD in two rows, six to a row].” The first placement that you do from them, that is in the oven, will be in the [plural] language of “them/אותם”, that implies that he would place two in two molds/frames together in the oven. It is possible that even the two loaves are like this, as the inference teaches us (ibid.,): “Place them,” that you should have said, “place them” [regarding the shewbread/לחם הפנים ], what does the inference each us – those – you place two by two in the oven, but you do not place the two loaves – two by two, but rather one at a time.

ובטפוס – like דפוס/mold or frame – PURMA in the foreign tongue, like a sort of box that you take its cover and its two walls one opposite the other, so also the bread, you would have two walls and wide rims at the bottom of the vessel and you prepare the dough within the mold that it is made like a kind of mold.

וכשהוא רודה –[removes/detaches bread from where it sticks] from the oven.

נותנן בדפוס. כדי שלא יתקלקלו – and break. It is found that there are three molds: one when it is dough and one when it was in the oven when it is baking, and one when he detaches bread from where it sticks from the oven and places it in a mold in order that it not be spoiled (see Tractate Menahot 94a).

לישתן ועריכתן בחוץ ואפייתן בפנים – but the reason for this matter is not explained in the Gemara, why their kneading and their rolling is outside [the Temple courtyard] but their baking is inside [the Temple courtyard].

ואינן דוחות את השבת – their baking.

וכשרות בבית פאגי – Maimonides states that it is a place close to the Temple Mount from outside (see Tractate Menahot, Chapter 7, Mishnah 3 – as a special place for the baking of meal-offerings) that they would bake the meal-offerings thee. From the language of (Daniel 1:12-13): “[Please test your servants for ten days, giving us legumes to eat and water to drink. Then compare our appearance with that of the youths] who eat of the king’s food, [and do with your servants as you see fit].” But the Halakha is onot other than according to the words of the first Tanna/teacher.
