Leviticus is the book that speaks the most about sacrifices (ch.1-9, ch.12,14,16,22,24), though there are also brief passages about sacrifices in Genesis (ch.22 and 35), Exodus (ch.12 and 29), Numbers (ch.28-29), Deuteronomy (ch.12 and 27) and elsewhere. Additional Comments: Some biblical scholars believe the first reference to 'sacrifices' was in Genesis 4:4 where Cain brought a 'deficient' grain offering and Abel brought 'of the firstborn of his flock and of their fat.' The Scripture is silent as to the reasons for these offerings. Some think the brothers sacrifice were acts of worship vis-a-vis coming to God for forgiveness. In either case, Abel's offering was "more excellent" than Cain's because of Abel's faith in the Lord (see Hebrews 11:4).
The Burnt Offering in the Old Testament is related to the idea of presenting ourselves as living sacrifices to God. Just as the burnt offering was completely consumed on the altar, this offering symbolizes complete dedication and surrender of oneself to God.
In the Bible, barley is mentioned as a type of grain that was commonly grown and used for various purposes, including making bread, offering sacrifices, and feeding animals. It is mentioned in relation to agricultural practices and as a symbol of abundance and blessing.

The word is refering to gift, it is the same as an offering. So it is refering to the sacrifices, which were to stop once the "he" confirmed the covenant, would make the sacrifices stop. This is why there is no need for sacrifices now, they have ceased.
