- the burnt:
- The proportions of the burnt offerings, and also of the meat and drink offerings, are very different here form those prescribed in the Mosaic law. The meat offering, under the law, was only three tenths of an ephah to a bullock, two tenths for a ram, and one tenth for a lamb, with the fourth part of a hin of oil. "And it shall be¹ the prince's partª¹ [to give] burnt offerings,ª and meat offerings,ª and drink offerings,ª in the feasts,ª and in the new moons,ª and in the sabbaths,ª in all¹ solemnitiesª of the houseª of Israel:ª he¹ shall prepareª°¹ the sin offering,ª and the meat offering,ª and the burnt offering,ª and the peace offerings,ª to make reconciliationª° for¹ the houseª of Israel.ª" {Ezk 45:17} + "And on the sabbathª dayª twoª lambsª of the firstª yearª without spot,ª and twoª tenth² deals¹ of flourª [for] a meat offering,ª mingledª° with oil,ª and the drink offeringª thereof: ... [This is] the burnt offeringª of every sabbath,ª beside¹ the continualª burnt offering,ª and his drink offering.ª" {Num 28:9-10}
