Numbers 7:10 - Jamieson, Fausset, and Brown Book Notes

Numbers 7:10

8 ^aand four carts and eight oxen he gave to the sons of Merari, according to their service, under the¹ authority of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest.

9 But to the sons of Kohath he gave none, because theirs was ^athe service of the holy things, ^bwhich they carried on their shoulders.

10 Now the leaders offered ^athe dedication offering for the altar when it was anointed; so the leaders offered their offering before the altar.

11 For the Lord said to Moses, “They shall offer their offering, one leader each day, for the dedication of the altar.”

12 And the one who offered his offering on the first day was ^aNahshon the son of Amminadab, from the tribe of Judah.

13 His offering was one silver platter, the weight of which was one hundred and thirty shekels, and one silver bowl of seventy shekels, according to ^athe shekel of the sanctuary, both of them full of fine flour mixed with oil as a ^bgrain offering;

14 one gold pan of ten shekels, full of ^aincense;

15 ^aone young bull, one ram, and one male lamb ^bin its first year, as a burnt offering;

16 one kid of the goats as a ^asin offering;

Numbers

NUMBERS. This book is so called because it contains an account of the enumeration and arrangement of the Israelites. The early part of it, from the first through the tenth chapters, appears to be a supplement to Leviticus, being occupied with relating the appointment of the Levites to the sacred offices. The journal of the march through the wilderness is then given as far as Numbers 21:20; after which the early incidents of the invasion are narrated. One direct quotation only from this book (Numbers 16:5) is made in the New Testament (II Timothy 2:19); but indirect references to it by the later sacred writers are very numerous.
