Einige [Getreideangebote] erfordern das Annähern, aber nicht das Winken, einige das Winken, aber nicht das Annähern, einige das Annähern und auch das Winken, und einige erfordern weder das Annähern noch das Winken. Diese müssen näher gebracht, aber nicht gewinkt werden: das Getreideangebot von feinem Mehl, das auf einer Bratpfanne zubereitet wurde, das in einer Pfanne zubereitet wurde, die Kuchen und die Waffeln, das Getreideangebot der Priester, das Getreideangebot des gesalbten Hohepriesters Getreideangebot eines Nichtjuden, das Getreideangebot von Frauen, das Getreideangebot des Sünders. Rabbi Shimon sagt: Das Getreidopfer der Priester und das Getreidopfer des gesalbten Hohepriesters erfordern keine Annäherung, da ihnen keine Handvoll genommen wird. Und in jedem Fall, in dem keine Handvoll herausgenommen wird, ist es nicht notwendig, sich zu nähern.

English Explanation of Mishnah Menachot
Introduction
This mishnah begins to note which minhahs must be brought to the altar (see Leviticus 2:8, 6:7), which have to be waved, which require one and not the other, and which require both. “Bringing near” refers to bringing the minhah close to the southwestern corner of the altar before the handful is removed. Note that the structure of this mishnah is nearly identical to the structure of mishnah three.

Some [minhahs] require bringing near but not waving, some require bringing near and also waving, some require waving but not bringing near, and some require neither bringing near nor waving. As was the format in mishnah three, the mishnah begins by noting that all of the combinations with regard to requiring bringing near and waving are possible.

These require bringing near but not waving: the minhah of fine flour, that prepared on a griddle, that prepared in a pan, the cakes and the wafers, the minhah of the priests, the minhah of the anointed high priest, the minhah of a gentile, the minhah of women, and the minhah of the omer. These minhahs are brought near to the altar, but they are not waved. The list is the same as that in section one of mishnah three.

Bartenura on Mishnah Menachot
וכל שאין בהם קמיצה – to permit the residue/remnants from the meal-offering for the Kohanim, and they don’t have bringing near [of the sacrifice]. But the Halakha is not according to Rabbi Shimon.

English Explanation of Mishnah Menachot
Rabbi Shimon says: the minhah of the priests and the minhah of the anointed high priest do not require bringing near, since no handful is taken out of them, and where no handful is taken out bringing near is not necessary. Rabbi Shimon says that since the minhahs of the priests and of the anointed high priest are not eaten at all, but rather are entirely burned, they need not be brought near to the altar. Rather they are just put on the altar and burned.
