Numbers 7:22

Study note

Setting — The text records the daily sacrificial contributions made by each tribal leader during the altar dedication sequence. It follows the burnt offering list and precedes the peace offering inventory for Nethanel son of Zuar.

The words — The phrase le./cha.Tat (sin offering) designates the ritual purpose of the se.'ir (male goat). The text specifies exactly one goat assigned to this atonement function.

The thread — The supplied context limits cross-references to the immediate Numbers 7 sequence, where Numbers 7:21 and 7:23 list the accompanying burnt and peace offerings for the same dedication event.

Why it lands — The text demands precise attention to the prescribed ritual inventory rather than abstract theological application. It requires the reader to track the exact quantity and type of animal assigned to each specific offering category.

Drafted by a language model from the text, its original words and its cross-references, then checked against them. It can still be wrong: open the verse in the app to report it.
