And Moses told the children of Israel according to all that the LORD commanded Moses.
And Moses told the children of Israel according to all that the Lord commanded him, closing and completing the instructions about the general public offerings in Numbers chapters 28 and 29. Those instructions prescribe the regular morning and evening sacrifice, the special offerings for the weekly Sabbath and the Sabbaths of the Lord, and the offerings for the annual sabbaths, new moons, and feasts. They include the daily sacrifices on successive days required during the Feast of Tabernacles in Numbers 29:12-40.
These additional and seasonal services belonged to the regular, daily, and continual ministration and ceaseless round of sanctuary service in the holy place or first tabernacle through the year. They went forward continuously through the year alongside the individual sin offerings and the particular offerings presented for individuals. That daily ministration was accomplished by the Levitical priesthood alongside the regular morning and evening burnt offering and the morning and evening burning of sweet incense. Like all the work connected with the earthly tabernacle it is the example and shadow of a like ministration and like work in the heavenly sanctuary.
The morning and evening sacrifices were offered for the whole congregation every day of the year and were never omitted for any other offerings. They are called about sixteen times the continual burnt offering. That continual burnt offering is part of the continual that also includes the showbread, the lamps, the incense, and the high priest bearing judgment, together comprising the entire divinely ordained service of the earthly sanctuary. Since that entire earthly service is a figure of the heavenly sanctuary, the term continual applies with equal force to the ministry above. It is that heavenly continual whose taking away is foretold in Daniel 8, because the earthly sanctuary and priesthood had ended before that power began its work.
The offerings for the Day of Atonement listed in Numbers 29:7-11 do not state whether they were offered before or after the high priest's work in the Most Holy Place. They therefore do not prove a preliminary work before the cleansing of the sanctuary, which could begin on the appointed day whether other offerings occurred before or after it. The sacrifices commanded for the Feast of Tabernacles derive their typological significance from the events and observances associated with the annual feast, not from every day merely because a sacrifice was offered on it.
