Note
The r stays single because offer is stressed on its first syllable: offered, never offerred. Followed by a to-infinitive, it reports willingness rather than a gift (he offered to drive). In the passive, either the thing or the person can become the subject: a seat was offered to her, or she was offered a seat. Offered up belongs to worship and sacrifice.
