Numbers 6:15 Meaning and Commentary

Numbers 6:15

And a basket of unleavened bread
As at the consecration of Aaron and his sons, ( Exodus 29:2 ) ; though for peace offerings for thanksgiving leavened bread was offered, ( Leviticus 7:13 ) ;

cakes of fine flour mingled with oil, and wafers of unleavened bread
anointed with oil;
ten of each sort, as Jarchi says, ten cakes and ten wafers, see ( Exodus 29:9 ) ( Leviticus 7:12 ) ;

and their meat offering and their drink offering;
which always used to attend every sacrifice.

Numbers 6:15 In-Context

13 "And this is the law for the Nazirite, when the time of his separation has been completed: he shall be brought to the entrance of the tent of meeting,
14 and he shall bring his gift to the LORD, one male lamb a year old without blemish for a burnt offering, and one ewe lamb a year old without blemish as a sin offering, and one ram without blemish as a peace offering,
15 and a basket of unleavened bread, loaves of fine flour mixed with oil, and unleavened wafers smeared with oil, and their grain offering and their drink offerings.
16 And the priest shall bring them before the LORD and offer his sin offering and his burnt offering,
17 and he shall offer the ram as a sacrifice of peace offering to the LORD, with the basket of unleavened bread. The priest shall offer also its grain offering and its drink offering.
