Numbers 28:7

Context

28:7 “‘And its drink offering must be one quarter of a hin for each lamb. 1  You must pour out the strong drink 2  as a drink offering to the Lord in the holy place.

Numbers 28:14

Context
28:14 For their drink offerings, include 3  half a hin of wine with each bull, one-third of a hin for the ram, and one-fourth of a hin for each lamb. This is the burnt offering for each month 4  throughout the months of the year.

1 tn Heb “the one lamb,” but it is meant to indicate for “each lamb.”

2 tn The word שֵׁכָר (shekhar) is often translated “strong drink.” It can mean “barley beer” in the Akkadian cognate, and also in the Hebrew Bible when joined with the word for wine. English versions here read “wine” (NAB, TEV, CEV); “strong wine” (KJV); “fermented drink” (NIV, NLT); “strong drink” (ASV, NASB, NRSV).

3 tn The word “include” is not in the Hebrew text but is implied. It is supplied in the translation to make a complete English sentence.

4 tn Heb “a month in its month.”
