N D the LORD ſpake unto Moſes ſaying, A 2 * Speak unto the children of Iſrael, and ſay unto them, When ye be come into the land of your habitations, which I give « unto you,

a (i.e. ) Will certainly give you, notwithſtanding this great provocation, ang my unchangeable comminarion. And for their better aſſurance hereof he repeats and amplifies the laws of facrifi- ces, whereby through Chritt he was or would be reconciled to them and theirs upon their repentance.

*Lev.13.8 Of the flock,

22,36.Ch. + (7. e.) A peace-offering, as appears 1. becauſe that word put 28.16.17. by it {elf is often ſo taken, as Exod. 18. 12. Levit. 17: 5,8. and 23. & 29.2,8, 37- Deut. 12. 27. 2: becauſe the offerings for ſins and treſpaſſes had 13. Deut. 10 meat-offerings and drink-offerings attending upon them, excep- 16. 10. ting only the caſe of Lepers cleanſing, Levit- 14, 10. 3. becauſe this * Exod. is explained by and called peace-oferings, wer. 8. 4. from'the words 29.18, here following, becauſe peace-offerings were commonly offered th either in performance of a vow, or freely, or by Gods command in their ſolemn feaſts, all which are here expreſſed.

4 Then * ſhall he that offerech his offering unto the LORD, bring a * meat-offering of a tenth-deal c of flour, mingled with the fourth par: of an hin of oil 9.

c; Or, tenth part, to wit, of an Ephah, 7. e. an Omer, Exod. 16. 36. d Wherein it ſeems to differ from ſuch meat-offerings as were ſolitary, and nor acceſlories to other ſacrifices.

5 And the fourth part of an hin of wine for a drink- offering ſhalt thou prepare, with the burnt-offering, or ſacrifice, for one lamb.

6 Or for a ram,thou ſhalt prepare for a meat-offering two tenth-deals e of flour mingled with the third par: of an hin of oil.

e Becauſe this belonged to a better ſacrifice than the former ;

So the acceſlory ſacrifice grows proportionably with the principal. | - .

7 And for a drink-offering, thou ſhalt offer the third part of an hin of wine,for a ſweet ſavour unto the LORD.

f (5.e. ) Or any other peace-offerings, to wit, ſuch as were offe. red either freely or by command, which may be called peace-ofe-ings or thank-offerings, by way of eminency, becauſe ſuch are offered purely by way of gratitude to God, and with ſingle reſpet to his command and honour, whereas the peace-offerings made in perfor mance of a vow were made and offered by way of Contract, and with deſign of getting ſome advantage by them,

9 Then fhall he bring with a bullock a meat-offering of three tenth deals of flour, mingled with half an hin of oyl.

10 And thou ſhalt bring for a drink-oftering half an hin of wine, for an offering made by fire of a ſweet ſavour unto the LORD.
