What does Numbers 15:5 mean?
John Gill's Exposition of the Bible
Numbers 15:5
And the fourth [part] of an hin of wine
The same measure with the oil, and this was wine of the grapes,
as the Targum of Jonathan; other sorts of wine might not be used
for the purpose mentioned:
for a drink offering shalt thou prepare;
with the meat offering, to go along with every burnt offering and
peace offering; which, as they were the food of God and the
provision of his house, it was proper there should be of every
kind fit for an entertainment, as flesh, bread, and wine. These
were to go
with the burnt offering or sacrifice, for one
lamb;
if there were more than one, then a greater quantity in
proportion was required.
