Numbers 29:4

and a tenth of an ephah with each of the seven male lambs.

Berean Standard Bible

Study note

Setting — God instructs Moses and the Israelites on the precise grain portion required for the seven male lambs during the festival offerings.

The words — עִשָּׂרוֹן ('i.sa.Ron) means a tenth [of an ephah], and כְּבָשִׂים (ke.va.Sim) means the lambs.

The thread — This measurement appears in Numbers 29:3 alongside the grain offerings for the bull and ram, and precedes the sin offering goat in Numbers 29:5.

Why it lands — The text requires exact compliance with ritual measurements for each animal in the sacrificial sequence.
