And also the burnt offerings were in abundance, with the fat
of the peace offerings, and the drink offerings, for every
burnt offering
Besides the abundance of burnt offerings, whose skins were to be taken off, there were meat offerings and drink offerings to each, which required many hands to prepare them; and also the fat of the peace offerings was to be burnt; which, all together, occasioned a great deal of business: so the service of the house of the Lord was set in order:
both for sacrifice and singing; a good beginning was made, and there was a good foundation laid to proceed on.
