And the other lamb thou shalt offer at even
(See Gill on Exodus 29:39),

and shall do thereto according to the meat offering of the morning, and
according to the drink offering thereof;
a meat and drink offering consisting of the same things, for quality and quantity, and made in the same manner, were to be offered with the daily evening sacrifice, as with the morning one:

for a sweet savour, an offering made by fire unto the Lord:
for these lambs were both burnt with fire upon the altar, and therefore are called a burnt offering in the next verse.
