Números 15:3 Meaning and Commentary

Numbers 15:3

And will make an offering by fire unto the Lord, a burnt
offering
The first of these respects such offerings by fire, which were not wholly burnt, but part of them were eaten by the priests, ( Deuteronomy 18:1 ) ; and the latter such as were wholly burnt, unless the latter can be thought to be only an explanation of the former:

or a sacrifice in performing a vow, or in a freewill offering;
these were peace offerings, some of which were for thanksgiving, and others were either a vow or a freewill offering, as here: see ( Leviticus 7:11 Leviticus 7:12 Leviticus 7:16 ) ;

or in your solemn feasts;
as the passover, pentecost of which, and the offerings in them, see ( Leviticus 23:4-37 ) ( Numbers 28:1-29:40 ) ;

to make a sweet savour unto the Lord;
for acceptance with him:

of the herd or of the flock;
a bullock of the one, a lamb or kid of the goats of the other; fowls are not mentioned, because burnt offerings of them required no drink offerings ^F6.

Números 15:3 In-Context

1 Y JEHOVA habló á Moisés, diciendo:

2 Habla á los hijos de Israel, y diles: Cuando hubiereis entrado en la tierra de vuestras habitaciones, que yo os doy,

3 E hiciereis ofrenda encendida á Jehová, holocausto, ó sacrificio, por especial voto, ó de vuestra voluntad, ó para hacer en vuestras solemnidades olor suave á Jehová, de vacas ó de ovejas;

4 Entonces el que ofreciere su ofrenda á Jehová, traerá por presente una décima de un epha de flor de harina, amasada con la cuarta parte de un hin de aceite;

5 Y de vino para la libación ofrecerás la cuarta parte de un hin, además del holocausto ó del sacrificio, por cada un cordero.
