(Exodus 29:38–44)

The Lord also said to Moses:

Command the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them: Offer ye my oblation and my bread, and burnt sacrifice of most sweet odour, in their due seasons.

These are the sacrifices which you shall offer: Two lambs of a year old without blemish every day for the perpetual holocaust:

One you shall offer in the morning, and the other in the evening:

And the tenth part of an ephi of flour, which shall be tempered with the purest oil, of the measure of the fourth part of a hin.

It is the continual holocaust which you offered in mount Sinai for a most sweet. odour of a sacrifice by fire to the Lord.

And for a libation you shall offer of wine the fourth part of a hin for every lamb in the sanctuary of the Lord.

And you shall offer the other lamb in like manner ill the evening according to all the rites of the morning sacrifice, and of the libations thereof, an oblation of most sweet odour to the Lord.

The Sabbath Offerings

And on the sabbath day you shall offer two lambs of a year old without blemish, and two tenths of flour tempered with oil in sacrifice, and the libations,

Which regularly are poured out every sabbath for the perpetual holocaust.

The Monthly Offerings

And on the first day of the month you shall offer a holocaust to the Lord, two calves of the herd, one ram, and seven lambs of a year old, without blemish,

And three tenths of flour tempered with oil in sacrifice for every calf: and two tenths of flour tempered with oil for every ram:

And the tenth of a tenth of flour tempered with oil in sacrifice for every lamb. It is a holocaust of most sweet odour and an offering by fire to the Lord.

And these shall be the libations of wine that are to be poured out for every victim: Half a hin for every calf, a third for a ram, and a fourth for a lamb. This shall be the holocaust for every month, as they succeed one another in the course of the year.

A buck goat also shall be offered to the Lord for a sin offering over and above the perpetual holocaust with its libations.

Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread

(Exodus 12:14–28; Leviticus 23:4–8; Deuteronomy 16:1–8)

And in the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, shall be the phase of the Lord,

And on the fifteenth day the solemn feast: seven days shall they eat unleavened bread.

And the first day of them shall be venerable and holy: you shall not do any servile work therein.

And you shall offer a burnt sacrifice a holocaust to the Lord, two calves of the herd, one ram, seven lambs of a year old, without blemish:

And for the sacrifices of every one three tenths of flour which shall be tempered with oil to every calf, and two tenths to every ram,

And the tenth of a tenth, to every lamb, that is to say, to all the seven lambs:

And one buck goat for sin, to make atonement for you,

Besides the morning holocaust which you shall always offer.

So shall you do every day of the seven days for the food of the fire, and for a most sweet odour to the Lord, which shall rise from the holocaust, and from the libations of each.

The seventh day also shall be most solemn and holy unto you: you shall do no servile work therein.

The Feast of Weeks

(Deuteronomy 16:9–12)

The day also of firstfruits, when after the weeks are accomplished, you shall offer new fruits to the Lord, shall be venerable and holy: you shall do no servile work therein.

And you shall offer a holocaust for a most sweet odour to the Lord, two calves of the herd, one ram, and seven lambs of a year old, without blemish:

And in the sacrifices of them three tenths of flour tempered with oil to every calf, two to every ram,

The tenth of a tenth to every lamb, which in all are seven lambs: a buck goat also,

Which is slain for expiation: besides the perpetual holocaust and the libations thereof.

You shall offer them all without blemish with their libations.

(Exodus 29:38–44)

The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

“Command the children of Israel, and tell them, ‘See that you present my offering, my food for my offerings made by fire, as a pleasant aroma to me, in their due season.’

You shall tell them, ‘This is the offering made by fire which you shall offer to the LORD: male lambs a year old without defect, two day by day, for a continual burnt offering.

You shall offer the one lamb in the morning, and you shall offer the other lamb at evening,

with one tenth of an ephah(a) of fine flour for a meal offering, mixed with the fourth part of a hin

(b)

of beaten oil.

It is a continual burnt offering which was ordained in Mount Sinai for a pleasant aroma, an offering made by fire to the LORD.

Its drink offering shall be the fourth part of a hin

(c)

for each lamb. You shall pour out a drink offering of strong drink to the LORD in the holy place.

The other lamb you shall offer at evening. As the meal offering of the morning, and as its drink offering, you shall offer it, an offering made by fire, for a pleasant aroma to the LORD.

The Sabbath Offerings

“‘On the Sabbath day, you shall offer two male lambs a year old without defect, and two tenths of an ephah(d) of fine flour for a meal offering mixed with oil, and its drink offering:

this is the burnt offering of every Sabbath, in addition to the continual burnt offering and its drink offering.

The Monthly Offerings

“‘In the beginnings of your months, you shall offer a burnt offering to the LORD: two young bulls, one ram, seven male lambs a year old without defect,

and three tenths of an ephah(e) of fine flour for a meal offering mixed with oil, for each bull; and two tenth parts of fine flour for a meal offering mixed with oil, for the one ram;

and one tenth part of fine flour mixed with oil for a meal offering to every lamb, as a burnt offering of a pleasant aroma, an offering made by fire to the LORD.

Their drink offerings shall be half a hin of wine for a bull, the third part of a hin for the ram, and the fourth part of a hin for a lamb. This is the burnt offering of every month throughout the months of the year.

Also, one male goat for a sin offering to the LORD shall be offered in addition to the continual burnt offering and its drink offering.

Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread

(Exodus 12:14–28; Leviticus 23:4–8; Deuteronomy 16:1–8)

“‘In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, is the LORD’s Passover.

On the fifteenth day of this month shall be a feast. Unleavened bread shall be eaten for seven days.

In the first day shall be a holy convocation. You shall do no regular work,

but you shall offer an offering made by fire, a burnt offering to the LORD: two young bulls, one ram, and seven male lambs a year old. They shall be without defect,

with their meal offering, fine flour mixed with oil. You shall offer three tenths for a bull, and two tenths for the ram.

You shall offer one tenth for every lamb of the seven lambs;

and one male goat for a sin offering, to make atonement for you.

You shall offer these in addition to the burnt offering of the morning, which is for a continual burnt offering.

In this way you shall offer daily, for seven days, the food of the offering made by fire, of a pleasant aroma to the LORD. It shall be offered in addition to the continual burnt offering and its drink offering.

On the seventh day you shall have a holy convocation. You shall do no regular work.

The Feast of Weeks

(Deuteronomy 16:9–12)

“‘Also in the day of the first fruits, when you offer a new meal offering to the LORD in your feast of weeks, you shall have a holy convocation. You shall do no regular work;

but you shall offer a burnt offering for a pleasant aroma to the LORD: two young bulls, one ram, seven male lambs a year old;

and their meal offering, fine flour mixed with oil, three tenths for each bull, two tenths for the one ram,

one tenth for every lamb of the seven lambs;

and one male goat, to make atonement for you.

Besides the continual burnt offering and its meal offering, you shall offer them and their drink offerings. See that they are without defect.
