Exodus 29:41 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 29:41

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.

Exodus 29:41 In-Context

40 And with the one lamb a tenth part of wheaten flour mingled with beaten oil, a fourth part of a hin; and a drink-offering, a fourth part of a hin of wine.
41 And the second lamb shalt thou offer between the two evenings; as the oblation in the morning, and as its drink-offering shalt thou offer with this, for a sweet odour, an offering by fire to Jehovah.
42 It shall be a continual burnt-offering throughout your generations at the entrance of the tent of meeting before Jehovah, where I will meet with you, to speak there with thee.
43 And there will I meet with the children of Israel; and it shall be hallowed by my glory.
