Nombres 8:8 Meaning and Commentary

Numbers 8:8

Then let them take a young bullock
Of two years old, as the Jewish writers gather from the other in the next clause, being called the second; though the wise men say one of three years old is fit for such a sacrifice; nay, others say, if four or five years old; but the decision is according to the wise men F17

with his meat offering, [even] fine flour mingled with oil:
which always went along with a burnt offering, and consisted of three tenth deals of line flour, and half an hin of oil, ( Numbers 28:12 Numbers 28:14 ) ;

and another young bullock shalt thou take for a sin offering;
which was the offering for the sin of the whole congregation of Israel, through ignorance; and this being for all the Levites, and they being instead of the firstborn of Israel, such an offering was required; and though there was no particular sin charged upon them, but it became necessary for their perfect cleansing and expiation.

Nombres 8:8 In-Context

6 Prends les Lévites du milieu des enfants d'Israël, et purifie-les.
7 Voici comment tu les purifieras. Fais sur eux une aspersion d'eau expiatoire; qu'ils fassent passer le rasoir sur tout leur corps, qu'ils lavent leurs vêtements, et qu'ils se purifient.
8 Ils prendront ensuite un jeune taureau, avec l'offrande ordinaire de fleur de farine pétrie à l'huile; et tu prendras un autre jeune taureau pour le sacrifice d'expiation.
9 Tu feras approcher les Lévites devant la tente d'assignation, et tu convoqueras toute l'assemblée des enfants d'Israël.
10 Tu feras approcher les Lévites devant l'Eternel; et les enfants d'Israël poseront leurs mains sur les Lévites.
