Verses 38-46
The daily burnt offering, meal offering, and drink offering 29:38-46
The priests began to offer these sacrifices as soon as the tabernacle was complete (ch. 40).
In the offering of a young lamb each morning and each evening with flour, oil, and wine, the Israelites consecrated their lives afresh daily to the Lord. This was an offering of worship and expiation (i.e., the removal of sin, Leviticus 1:4). It ensured Israel’s continuing communion with her God.
". . . thus the day was opened and closed with gifts to Yahweh, from whom all gifts were believed to come." [Note: Durham, p. 396.]
