The chapter consists entirely of prescriptive sacrificial law, in which God commands Moses to instruct the Israelites on the precise daily, weekly, monthly, and festival burnt offerings required at each appointed time. The content specifies exact quantities \u2014 animals (lambs, bullocks, rams, goats), grain measures (tenths of an ephah of fine flour), oil ratios, and wine libations \u2014 for each occasion: the daily *tamid* offering, Sabbath additions, new moon sacrifices, Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread, and the Festival of Firstfruits (Shavuot). A distinctive feature of the presentation is that all three versions are rendered together, enabling direct comparison of how the Greek Septuagint and the Hebrew Masoretic Text diverge in vocabulary and phrasing \u2014 for instance, the LXX uses *endelecismos* (\"continual\") where the Hebrew has *tamid*, and renders the drink offering (*nesekh*) with *spond\u0113*. This format signals a scholarly or study-Bible context aimed at readers engaged in textual criticism or close comparative reading of ancient manuscript traditions.","tags":["Book of Acts","Greek New Testament","Polyglot Bible"],"text":null,"title":"Polyglot Bible: Numbers: Numbers 28","tradition":"Hypertext Bible","translated_text":null,"word_count":2232}
