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 "For a ram prepare a Grain-Offering of four quarts of fine flour mixed with one and a quarter quarts of oil
7 and one and a quarter quarts of wine as a Drink-Offering. Present it as a pleasing fragrance to God.
8 "When you prepare a young bull as a Whole-Burnt-Offering or sacrifice for a special vow or a Peace-Offering to God,
