Nehemiah 10:33

For the shewbread
To defray the expenses of the twelve loaves, which every week were set on the table of shewbread, ( Leviticus 24:5-9 ) ,

and for the continual meat offering, and for the continual
burnt offering;
for the daily sacrifice, morning and evening, which always had a meat offering along with it, ( Exodus 29:38-42 ) ,

of the sabbaths, and of the new moons;
on which were additional sacrifices, ( Numbers 28:9-15 ) ,

and for the set feasts;
of passover, pentecost, and tabernacles; in which also were offered other sacrifices, besides the daily one, ( Numbers 28:16-31 ) ( 29:1-39 ) ,

and for the holy things:
which were both by way of thanksgiving to God, and that they might feast and rejoice together:

and for the sin offerings, to make an atonement for Israel;
for the whole body of the people, and so were made at the public expense:

and for all the work of the house of our God;
whatever else was necessary that is not mentioned.

Nehemiah 10:33 In-Context

31 If the neighboring peoples bring merchandise or any grain to sell on the Sabbath, we won't buy it from them on the Sabbath or on any holy day. Every seventh year we won't plant crops, and we will return anything held in debt.

32 We pledge ourselves to keep the commandment and pay one-third of a shekel each year for the service of our God's house,

33 for the stacks of bread and the regular grain offering and the regular entirely burned offering, for the sabbaths and the new moons and the appointed festivals, for the holy offerings and the purification offerings to make reconcilation for Israel, and for all the work of our God's house.

34 We have also cast lots among the priests, the Levites, and the people so that we bring the wood offering into our God's house by families at the appointed times every year, to burn on the altar of the LORD our God, as it is written in the Instruction.

35 We will also bring the early produce of our soil and the early fruit from all trees every year to the LORD's house.
