Numbers 28:5 Meaning and Commentary

Numbers 28:5

And the tenth part of an ephah of flour for a meat offering,
&c.] Which always went along with the burnt offering:

mingled with the fourth part of an hin of beaten oil:
which in those times and countries was used instead of butter; and fine flour and this mingled together made a "minchah", or bread offering, as it should rather be called; of the measures used, (See Gill on Exodus 29:40).

Numbers 28:5 In-Context

3 Say to them, This is the offering made by fire which you are to give to the Lord; he-lambs of the first year without any mark, two every day as a regular burned offering.
4 Let one be offered in the morning, and the other at evening;
5 And the tenth part of an ephah of the best meal for a meal offering mixed with the fourth part of a hin of clear oil.
6 It is a regular burned offering, as it was ordered in Mount Sinai, for a sweet smell, an offering made by fire to the Lord.
7 And for its drink offering take the fourth part of a hin for one lamb: in the holy place let the wine be drained out for a drink offering for the Lord.
