Éxodo 29:38 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 29:38

Now this is that which thou shalt offer upon the altar
An altar being ordered to be built, and this sanctified and expiated, and priests being appointed and consecrated to the service of it; an account is given of the offerings that should be offered up upon it every day, besides those that should be offered occasionally, and at other set times:

two lambs of the first year day by day continually;
typical of Christ the Lamb of God, who continually, through the efficacy of his blood, and the virtue of his sacrifice, which are ever the same, takes away day by day the sins of his people. A lamb is a proper emblem of him for innocence and harmlessness, for meekness and humility, for patience, for usefulness for food and clothing, and especially for sacrifice; and these being of the

first year,
may denote the tenderness of Christ, who as he grew up as a tender plant, so as a tender lamb, encompassed with infirmities, being in all things like unto his people, excepting sin; and as these were to be

without spot,
( Numbers 28:3 ) and so here, in the Septuagint version, it may point at the purity of Christ, who is the Lamb of God, without spot and blemish, and who offered himself without spot to God, and was a fit sacrifice to be offered up for the taking away of the sins of men.

Éxodo 29:38 In-Context

36 Cada día deberás sacrificar un becerro como ofrenda por el pecado, para purificarlos y hacerlos justos ante el Señor
.
Finalizada la ceremonia, limpia el altar purificándolo;
unge el altar con aceite para consagrarlo.

37 Purifica el altar y conságralo cada día, durante siete días. Después el altar será completamente santo, y todo lo que lo toque se volverá santo.

38 »Ahora te diré los sacrificios que debes ofrecer con regularidad sobre el altar. Cada día ofrecerás dos corderos de un año:

39 uno en la mañana y el otro por la tarde.

40 Con uno de ellos, ofrecerás dos kilos de harina selecta, mezclada con un litro de aceite puro de olivas prensadas; ofrece también un litro de vino
como ofrenda líquida.
