Commentary on Numbers 28:3

Theological / Devotional

The offering made by fire. The “continual” service of the daily sacrifice (see on Ex. 29:38-40) with its promises (vs. 42, 43, 45) is particularly spoken of here.

Without spot. Perfection in the lamb was expressly required and emphasized (Heb. 9:14). This qualification had also been required of other sacrifices (Ex. 12:5; Lev. 1:3; Num. 19:2; 1 Peter 1:19).

A continual burnt offering. An abbreviated form “the daily,” or “continual,” is found in Dan. 8:11-13; 11:31; 12:11. The continual aspect of this offering provided a striking parallel to the Lamb of God, whose one sacrifice is continually effective; He died once for all (Heb. 7:3 ; 10:12, 14).
