Numbers Chapter
Twenty-nine
New King James Version (NKJV)
INTRODUCTION TO NUMBERS 29
In
this chapter an account is given of the various offerings on the several
remarkable days in the seventh month of the year; at the feast of blowing the
trumpets on the first day of the month
Numbers 29:1
at
the great fast or day of atonement
which was the tenth of the month
Numbers 29:7
and
at the feast of tabernacles
which began on the fifteenth day of the same
month
and continued eight days
and the sacrifices of every day are
particularly mentioned; of the first day
Numbers 29:12
of
the second day
Numbers 29:17
of
the third day
Numbers 29:20
of
the fourth day
Numbers 29:23
of
the fifth day
Numbers 29:26
of
the sixth day
Numbers 29:29
of
the seventh day
Numbers 29:32
and
of the eighth day
Numbers 29:35
which
sacrifices were to be offered
besides their vows and freewill offerings
of
which Moses gave a faithful account
according to the command of God
Numbers 29:39.
Numbers 29:1 ‘And in the seventh month
on the first day of the month
you
shall have a holy convocation. You shall do no customary work. For you it is a
day of blowing the trumpets.
YLT
1`And in the seventh month
in the first of the month
a holy convocation ye have
ye do no servile work; a
day of shouting it is to you;
And in the seventh month
.... The month Tisri
as
the Targum of Jonathan
which answers to part of our September and October; a
month famous for days to be religiously observed
having more of them in it
than any other month in the year:
on the first day of the month
ye shall have a holy convocation; see Leviticus 23:24
ye shall do no servile work; therefore
in the place
referred to
is called a sabbath:
it is a day of blowing the trumpets unto you; of which; see
Gill on Leviticus 23:24.
Numbers 29:2 2 You shall offer a burnt offering as a sweet aroma to
the Lord: one young bull
one ram
and seven lambs in their first
year
without blemish.
YLT
2and ye have prepared a
burnt-offering
for sweet fragrance to Jehovah: one bullock
a son of the herd
one ram
seven lambs
sons of a year
perfect ones;
And ye shall offer a burnt offering for a sweet savour unto the
Lord
.... Which was as follows:
one young bullock
one ram
and seven lambs of the first year
without blemish
which was the same
only one bullock less
with the offerings on
the first day of the month
the seven days of unleavened bread
and the day of
the firstfruits
Numbers 28:11
Numbers 28:19
Numbers 28:27.
Numbers 29:3 3 Their grain offering shall be fine flour mixed
with oil: three-tenths of an ephah for the bull
two-tenths for the ram
YLT
3and their present
flour
mixed with oil
three-tenth deals for the bullock
two-tenth deals for the ram
Verses 3-5
And their meat offering
.... Which went along
with the creatures offered for a burnt offering; the quantity of flour and oil
used in it was the same
for a bullock
a ram
and each lamb
as in the
offerings at the new moons
feast of unleavened bread and the day of firstfruits
Numbers 28:10 and a
kid of the goats was also offered for a sin offering at this time
as in those
seasons
and for the same purpose
to make atonement for the sins of their holy
things.
Numbers 29:4 4 and one-tenth for each of the seven lambs;
YLT
4and one-tenth deal for the
one lamb
for the seven lambs;
Numbers 29:5 5 also one kid of the goats as a sin offering
to
make atonement for you;
YLT
5and one kid of the goats
a
sin-offering
to make atonement for you;
Numbers 29:6 6 besides the burnt offering with its grain offering for
the New Moon
the regular burnt offering with its grain offering
and their
drink offerings
according to their ordinance
as a sweet aroma
an offering
made by fire to the Lord.
YLT
6apart from the
burnt-offering of the month
and its present
and the continual burnt-offering
and its present
and their libations
according to their ordinance
for sweet
fragrance
a fire-offering to Jehovah.
Beside the burnt offering of the month
and his meat offering
.... The
bullock
ram
and seven lambs
were offered on this day
besides the two
bullocks
one ram
and seven lambs
which were offered on it
on account of its
being the first day of the month and besides the meat offering that went along
with them; these were not omitted on account of those additional sacrifices:
and the daily burnt offering; the two lambs of the
daily sacrifice; these also were offered as usual
so that there were offered
on this day three bullocks
two rams
and sixteen lambs:
and his meat offering
and their drink offerings
according to
their manner; these also were offered with the daily sacrifice
according to
the law and rule prescribed for the making of them
and all were
for a sweet savour
a sacrifice made by fire unto the Lord; for they were
burnt sacrifices
and very acceptable to the Lord
as they were types of the
better sacrifice
with which he is infinitely well pleased; and it is with
respect to that that such a number of sacrifices were appointed.
Numbers 29:7 7 ‘On the tenth day of this seventh month you
shall have a holy convocation. You shall afflict your souls; you shall not do
any work.
YLT
7`And on the tenth of this
seventh month a holy convocation ye have
and ye have humbled your souls; ye do
no work;
And ye shall have on the tenth day of the seventh month an holy
convocation
.... The month Tisri
as before; so the Targum of Jonathan:
and ye shall afflict your souls; or persons; their bodies
by fasting
and their souls by repentance and humiliation; for this was a grand
fast
as it is called Acts 27:9
ye shall not do any work therein; see Leviticus 23:28.
Numbers 29:8 8 You shall present a burnt offering to the Lord as a sweet aroma: one young bull
one ram
and seven
lambs in their first year. Be sure they are without blemish.
YLT
8and ye have brought near a
burnt-offering to Jehovah
a sweet fragrance
one bullock
a son of the herd
one ram
seven lambs
sons of a year
perfect ones they are for you
But ye shall offer a burnt offering unto the Lord
.... Which is
the same as ordered to be offered on the first day
Numbers 29:2. Aben
Ezra is of opinion that the ram here is different from those in Leviticus 16:3.
Numbers 29:9 9 Their grain offering shall be of fine flour
mixed with oil: three-tenths of an ephah for the bull
two-tenths for
the one ram
YLT
9and their present
flour
mixed with oil
three-tenth deals for the bullock
two-tenth deals for the one
ram
Verse 9-10
And their meat offering
.... Which was of the
same quantity of flour and oil
for a bullock
a ram
and a lamb
as for the
meat offering on the first day of the month.
Numbers 29:10 10 and one-tenth for each of the seven lambs;
YLT
10a several tenth deal for
the one lamb
for the seven lambs
Numbers 29:11 11 also one kid of the goats as a sin offering
besides the sin offering for atonement
the regular burnt offering with its
grain offering
and their drink offerings.
YLT
11one kid of the goats
a
sin-offering; apart from the sin-offering of the atonements
and the continual
burnt-offering
and its present
and their libations.
One kid of the goats for a sin offering
.... This
also
as it was different from that which was offered for the service of the
day
so it was offered after it; as is observed by the Jewish writers
that the
goat
which was offered without
though of the Musaphim
or additions
could
not go before the service of the day for it is said as follows:
beside the sin offering of atonement; hence
say
they
we learn
that the goat within
which was of the service of the day
went
before itF14Bartenora in Misn. Yoma
c. 7. sect. 3. ; after that the
ram of Aaron
and the ram of the people
and after that the fat of the sin
offering:
and the continual burnt offering
and the meat offering of it
and
their drink offerings; which were never omitted on account of the service of any day
though ever so solemn
as this was: hence it appears that there were offered on
this day of atonement two bullocks
three rams
three goats
and two lambs.
Numbers 29:12 12 ‘On the fifteenth day of the seventh month you shall
have a holy convocation. You shall do no customary work
and you shall keep a
feast to the Lord seven days.
YLT
12`And on the fifteenth day
of the seventh month a holy convocation ye have; ye do no servile work; and ye
have celebrated a festival to Jehovah seven days
And on the fifteenth day of the seventh month ye shall have an
holy convocation
.... Of the same month Tisri
which was the seventh from Nisan or
Abib
though it was formerly the first month of the year:
ye shall do no servile work
and ye shall keep a feast unto the
Lord seven days; the feast of tabernacles
which began on the fifteenth day of
this month.
Numbers 29:13 13 You shall present a burnt offering
an offering made
by fire as a sweet aroma to the Lord: thirteen
young bulls
two rams
and fourteen lambs in their first year. They
shall be without blemish.
YLT
13and have brought near a
burnt-offering
a fire-offering
a sweet fragrance
to Jehovah; thirteen
bullocks
sons of the herd
two rams
fourteen lambs
sons of a year; perfect
ones they are;
Verses 13-34
And ye shall offer a burnt offering
.... That is
on the
first of the seven days
which was as follows:
thirteen young bullocks
two rams
and fourteen lambs of the first
year
they shall be without blemish; a very large sacrifice
indeed
for these were offered besides one kid of the goats
for a sin
offering
and the two lambs of the daily sacrifice
which were not omitted on
account of this extraordinary offering; so that there were no less than thirty
two animals sacrificed on this day: the meat and drink offerings for each
according to the kind of them
were as usual
and as before frequently
observed; and the same sacrifices
meat offerings
and drink offerings
were
offered on the six following days of the feast
only with this difference
that
there was one bullock less every day; which it is thought may denote the
decrease of sin in the people
and so an increase of holiness
or rather the
gradual waxing old and vanishing away of the ceremonial law
and the sacrifices
of it; and these bullocks ending in the number seven
which is a number may
lead us to think of the great sacrifice these all typified
whereby Christ has
perfected them that are sanctified.
Numbers 29:14 14 Their grain offering shall be of fine flour
mixed with oil: three-tenths of an ephah for each of the thirteen bulls
two-tenths for each of the two rams
YLT
14and their present
flour
mixed with oil
three-tenth deals to the one bullock
for the thirteen
bullocks
two-tenth deals to the one ram
for the two rams
Numbers 29:15 15 and one-tenth for each of the fourteen lambs;
YLT
15and a several tenth deal to
the one lamb
for the fourteen lambs
Numbers 29:16 16 also one kid of the goats as a sin offering
besides the regular burnt offering
its grain offering
and its drink offering.
YLT
16and one kid of the goats
a
sin-offering; apart from the continual burnt-offering
its present
and its
libation.

.... The day

Jehovah in your appointed seasons
apart from your vows
and your free-will
offerings
for your burnt-offerings
and for your presents
and for your
libations
and for your peace-offerings.'
These things ye shall do to the Lord
in your set feasts
.... Or rather
in the times set and appointed to you
as the Jewish writersF15Maimon.
& Bartenora in Misn. Pesach
c. 7. sect. 4. interpret it; and so Jarchi
interprets it of a fixed time
which seems better; since these were not all
feast days
on which the above sacrifices were to be offered
for one of them
was a fast
even the day of atonement:
besides your vows
and your freewill offerings: which might
be offered up at any time
notwithstanding the above sacrifices
which were
necessary and obligatory; but these were at their own option:
for your burnt offerings
and for your meat offerings
and your
drink offerings
and for your peace offerings; of which see Leviticus 7:11.
Numbers 29:40 40 So Moses told the children of Israel everything
just
as the Lord commanded Moses.
YLT
40And Moses saith unto the
sons of Israel according to all that Jehovah hath commanded Moses.
And Moses told the children of Israel
.... All these
things; repeated the several laws unto them concerning the above sacrifices
with the additions unto them
and explanations of them:
according to all that the Lord commanded Moses; being a
faithful servant to the Lord in all his house
and in all things appertaining to
it.
