18 'On the first day shall be a holy convocation ; you shall do no e laborious work . 19 'You shall present an offering by fire , a burnt offering to the Lord : two bulls e e and one ram and seven male lambs one year old , having them without defect . 20 'For their grain offering , you shall offer fine flour mixed with oil : three-tenths e of an ephah for a bull and two-tenths e for the ram . 21 'A tenth of an ephah you shall offer for each of the seven lambs ; 22 and one male goat for a sin offering to make atonement for you. 23 'You shall present these besides e the burnt offering of the morning , which is for a continual burnt offering . 24 'After this manner you shall present daily , for seven days , the food of the offering by fire , of a soothing aroma to the Lord ; it shall be presented with its drink offering in addition to the continual burnt offering . 25 'On the seventh day you shall have a holy convocation ; you shall do no e laborious work .
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Numbers 28:18-25
Commentary on Numbers 28:16-31
(Read Numbers 28:16-31)
By the sacrifices enjoined in this chapter, we are reminded of the continued power of the sacrifice of Christ, and of our continual need to depend thereon. No hurrying employments, or perilous situations, or prosperous circumstances, should cause slackness in our religious exercises; but should rather stir us up to greater diligence in seeking help from, or giving thanks to the Lord. And all is to be accompanied with repentance, faith is the Lord Jesus, and love to him, and to produce true holiness in our conduct towards all men; otherwise God will abhor our most solemn services and abundant devotions. And Christ is able to supply the wants of every day, every week, every month, every year, every ordinance, every case.
