Numbers 15:8 Meaning and Commentary

Numbers 15:8

And when thou preparest a bullock [for] a burnt offering
Which was a larger offering, and required a larger meat offering and drink offering, as ( Numbers 15:9 Numbers 15:10 ) show:

or [for] a sacrifice in performing a vow or peace offerings unto the
Lord;
by which latter are meant freewill offerings; for though both sorts here mentioned were peace offerings, yet these were more particularly called so.

Numbers 15:8 In-Context

6 And for a ram thou shalt offer as oblation two tenth parts of fine flour mingled with oil, a third part of a hin,

7 and of wine for a drink-offering shalt thou offer the third part of a hin; for a sweet odour to Jehovah.

8 And when thou offerest a bullock for a burnt-offering, or a sacrifice for the performance of a vow, or for a peace-offering to Jehovah,

9 then shall they present with the bullock as oblation three tenth parts of fine flour mingled with half a hin of oil;

10 and of wine shalt thou present half a hin, for a drink-offering, as an offering by fire, of a sweet odour to Jehovah.
