7 'Then the drink offering with it shall be a fourth of a hin for each lamb , in the holy place you shall pour out a drink offering of strong drink to the Lord . 8 'The other lamb you shall offer at twilight ; as the grain offering of the morning and as its drink offering , you shall offer it, an offering by fire , a soothing aroma to the Lord .
9 'Then on the sabbath day two male lambs one year old without defect , and two-tenths e of an ephah of fine flour mixed with oil as a grain offering , and its drink offering : 10 'This is the burnt offering of every sabbath in addition to the continual burnt offering and its drink offering . 11 'Then at the beginning of each of your months you shall present a burnt offering to the Lord : two bulls e e and one ram , seven male lambs one year old without defect ; 12 and three-tenths e of an ephah of fine flour mixed with oil for a grain offering , for each bull ; and two-tenths e of fine flour mixed with oil for a grain offering , for the one ram ; 13 and a tenth of an ephah of fine flour mixed with oil for a grain offering for each lamb , for a burnt offering of a soothing aroma , an offering by fire to the Lord . 14 'Their drink offerings shall be half a hin of wine for a bull and a third of a hin for the ram and a fourth of a hin for a lamb ; this is the burnt offering of each month throughout the months of the year . 15 'And one male goat for a sin offering to the Lord ; it shall be offered with its drink offering in addition to the continual burnt offering .
16 ' Then on the fourteenth e day of the first month shall be the Lord'S Passover . 17 ' On the fifteenth e day of this month shall be a feast , unleavened bread shall be eaten for seven days . 18 'On the first day shall be a holy convocation ; you shall do no e laborious work . 19 'You shall present an offering by fire , a burnt offering to the Lord : two bulls e e and one ram and seven male lambs one year old , having them without defect . 20 'For their grain offering , you shall offer fine flour mixed with oil : three-tenths e of an ephah for a bull and two-tenths e for the ram . 21 'A tenth of an ephah you shall offer for each of the seven lambs ; 22 and one male goat for a sin offering to make atonement for you. 23 'You shall present these besides e the burnt offering of the morning , which is for a continual burnt offering . 24 'After this manner you shall present daily , for seven days , the food of the offering by fire , of a soothing aroma to the Lord ; it shall be presented with its drink offering in addition to the continual burnt offering . 25 'On the seventh day you shall have a holy convocation ; you shall do no e laborious work . 26 'Also on the day of the first fruits , when you present a new grain offering to the Lord in your Feast of Weeks , you shall have a holy convocation ; you shall do no e laborious work . 27 'You shall offer a burnt offering for a soothing aroma to the Lord : two young bulls e e , one ram , seven male lambs one year old ; 28 and their grain offering , fine flour mixed with oil : three-tenths e of an ephah for each bull , two-tenths e for the one ram , 29 a tenth for each of the seven lambs ;

Commentary on Numbers 28:1-8
(Read Numbers 28:1-8)
God saw fit now to repeat the law of sacrifices. This was a new generation of men; and they were concerned to keep their peace with God when at war with their enemies. The daily sacrifice is called a continual burnt-offering; when we are bid to pray always, at least every morning and evening we should offer up solemn prayers and praises to God. Nothing is added here but that the wine poured out in the drink-offering is to be strong wine, to teach us to serve God with the best we have. It was a figure of the blood of Christ, the memorial of which is still left to the church in wine; and of the blood of the martyrs, which was poured out as a drink-offering on the sacrifice and service of our faith, Philippians 2:17.
Commentary on Numbers 28:9-15
(Read Numbers 28:9-15)
Every sabbath day, beside the two lambs offered for the daily burnt-offering, there must be two more offered. This teaches us to double our devotions on sabbath days, for so the duty of the day requires. The sabbath rest is to be observed, in order more closely to apply ourselves to the sabbath work, which ought to fill up the sabbath time. The offerings in the new moons showed thankfulness for the renewing of earthly blessings: when we rejoice in the gifts of providence, we must make the sacrifice of Christ, that great gift of special grace, the fountain and spring-head of our joy. And the worship performed in the new moons is made typical of gospel solemnities, Isaiah 66:23. As the moon borrows light from the sun, and is renewed by its influences; so the church borrows her light from Jesus Christ, who is the Sun of righteousness, renewing the state of the church, especially under the gospel.
Commentary on Numbers 28:16-31
(Read Numbers 28:16-31)
By the sacrifices enjoined in this chapter, we are reminded of the continued power of the sacrifice of Christ, and of our continual need to depend thereon. No hurrying employments, or perilous situations, or prosperous circumstances, should cause slackness in our religious exercises; but should rather stir us up to greater diligence in seeking help from, or giving thanks to the Lord. And all is to be accompanied with repentance, faith is the Lord Jesus, and love to him, and to produce true holiness in our conduct towards all men; otherwise God will abhor our most solemn services and abundant devotions. And Christ is able to supply the wants of every day, every week, every month, every year, every ordinance, every case.
