Numbers 28 verses
Numbers 28 10 Meaning
Numbers 28:10 details the drink offering associated with the special burnt offering prescribed for the Sabbath day. This offering consisted of half a hin of wine to accompany the Sabbath's unique sacrifices, which included two additional unblemished male lambs, beyond the regular daily offering. The verse emphasizes the precise and specific nature of worship commanded by God, even for holy days of rest, ensuring that all elements of the offering, including the drink libation, met His exact requirements.
Numbers 28 10 Context
Numbers chapter 28 presents a detailed list of public offerings commanded by God through Moses for the Israelites. It specifies the animals, grain, and drink offerings to be given daily, on the Sabbath, at New Moons, and during the annual festivals throughout the year. The historical context is the Israelites camped in the wilderness, receiving precise instructions for their communal worship and priestly duties as they prepared to enter the Promised Land. This meticulous set of regulations underlines God's expectation of structured, exact, and consistent worship, setting Israel apart from pagan nations with their often chaotic and unprescribed rituals. Numbers 28:10 fits within the section delineating the special requirements for Sabbath worship, emphasizing its heightened sanctity through an increased number of animals and a correspondingly larger drink offering compared to daily observances.
Numbers 28 10 Word analysis
- its drink offering (נִסְכּוֹ - nisko): This term refers to a libation, typically of wine or other liquids, poured out as part of a sacrifice. It signifies devotion and consecration, and in the ancient Near East, libations were common rituals to deity. In Israel, it was exclusively part of commanded worship, never for idols. The precise quantity indicated God's orderliness and the necessity of strict adherence, countering the arbitrary offerings of other religions.
- shall be (יִהְיֶה - yihyeh): The verb emphasizes divine decree; it is a direct command and an absolute requirement, not a suggestion or optional practice. This underscores the unyielding nature of God's covenant expectations.
- half a hin (חֲצִי הִין - ḥaṣī hîn): A hin was a liquid measurement unit in ancient Israel, roughly equivalent to about 3.6 to 6 liters, making half a hin approximately 1.8 to 3 liters. Numbers 15:5 specifies one-quarter hin for one lamb. Since the Sabbath offering (v.9) involves two lambs, a total of half a hin is precisely what two one-quarter hin libations would total, signifying consistent and exact adherence to established laws for each animal within the collective offering, rather than an arbitrary doubling for the day itself.
- of wine (יַיִן - yayin): The common and primary liquid for libations in Israelite worship. Wine was seen as a symbol of joy and abundance (Psalm 104:15), and its pouring out in worship symbolized a joyous and complete giving to the Lord. It served to mark the solemnity and completeness of the animal sacrifice.
- for a burnt offering (לְעֹלָה - ləʿōlāh): The olah, or burnt offering, was a sacrifice entirely consumed by fire on the altar, symbolizing total dedication and atonement for unintentional sin. The drink offering was integral to the olah, meaning the pouring out of wine completed the dedication, signifying that nothing was held back from God. This linkage emphasizes that even the seemingly minor details contributed to the full and acceptable worship of the Lord.
