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 You will say to them: This is the food gift that you must present to the LORD: two flawless one-year-old lambs as the regular entirely burned offering every day.

4 One lamb you will offer in the morning and the second at twilight,

5 with a tenth of an ephah of fine flour for a grain offering mixed with a fourth of a hin of beaten oil.

6 It is the regular entirely burned offering begun at Mount Sinai, a food gift that is a soothing smell to the LORD.

7 Their drink offering will be a fourth of a hin for each lamb. In the sanctuary a drink offering of brandy will be poured out for the LORD.
