Commentary
Commentary on Numbers 28:7
Theological / DevotionalThe drink offering. Also given in Mt. Sinai (Ex. 29:40).
In the holy place. Probably at the base of the altar of burnt offerings, which stood within the court (Ex. 29:42).
The strong wine. Heb. shekar. The drink offering, with this one exception, was made of ordinary wine, yayin. The quantity used for each lamb was about 1 qt. The word shekar is frequently used to denote a drink not made from grapes; it was usually made from grain or honey. For example, in Lev. 10:9, Aaron and his sons, were commanded not to drink yayin or shekar when they prepared to enter the tabernacle. Many commentators would insist that in this instance shekar must refer to the noblest and best wine. The Jewish commentators, by and large, speak of this instance of the use of shekar as excluding wine diluted with water, or as newly pressed wine.
