4 And one tenth deal for one lamb, throughout the seven lambs:
4 and with each of the seven lambs, one-tenth.
4 and one tenth for each of the seven lambs;
4 and two quarts for each lamb,
4 and one-tenth for each of the seven lambs;
4 and two quarts with each of the seven lambs.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Numbers 29:4
Commentary on Numbers 29:1-11
(Read Numbers 29:1-11)
There were more sacred solemnities in the seventh month than in any other. It was the space between harvest and seed-time. The more leisure we have from the pressing occupations of this life, the more time we should spend in the immediate service of God. The blowing of the trumpets was appointed, Leviticus 22:24. Here they are directed what sacrifices to offer on that day. Those who would know the mind of God in the Scriptures, must compare one part with another. The latter discoveries of Divine light explain what was dark, and supply what was wanting, in the former, that the man of God may be perfect.
