###### Chizkuni, Numbers 28:2:1
[Chizkuni, Numbers 28:2:1](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Chizkuni/s/Numbers/r/28:2:1)

**תשמרו להקריב לי** מה שמירה האמורה גבי פסח בקור אף שמירה האמורה כאן בקור.

**Chizkuni, translated and annotated by Eliyahu Munk:**
תשמרו להקריב לי, “you shall observe in order to offer for Me.” Just as the word שמירה in connection with the lambs for the Passover meant: “close supervision, to prevent any blemish developing,” so here too the meaning is “close supervision prior to slaughtering the daily communal animal sacrifices.”


###### Chizkuni, Numbers 28:2:2
[Chizkuni, Numbers 28:2:2](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Chizkuni/s/Numbers/r/28:2:2)

**להקריב לי במועדו** אף בשבת אף בטומאה אם לא ימצא טהור לא יניח הקרבתו ואפילו בשעת מלחמה וכן מצינו ביהושע שהוכיח המלאך על שבטלו התמיד כשצרו על יריחו. ד״‎א **במועדו** שלא יקדימו קודם הבקר ולא יאחרו אחר הערב.

**Chizkuni, translated and annotated by Eliyahu Munk:**
להקריב לי במועדו, “to present to Me at its appointed time.” This applies even if the appointed time occurs on the Sabbath, or if the person offering it is temporarily ritually unclean. (Compare Sifri) [I did not find the reference to ritual impurity in my edition of the Sifri. Ed.] According to the author, it must mean that if no priest can be found on that day that is ritually pure. This offering must not be skipped even during time of war. [There are stories in the Talmud describing that the priests paid fortunes to the besieging Babylonians or Romans to supply such animals for them. Ed. We find that the angel remonstrated with Joshua for not having seen to it that this offering was offered while the army laid siege to Jericho (Talmud, tractate Megillah folio 3) An alternate interpretation: the emphasis here is on the word במועדו, “at its appointed time,” it must neither be offered too early in the morning nor too late in the afternoon.


###### Chizkuni, Numbers 28:4:1
[Chizkuni, Numbers 28:4:1](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Chizkuni/s/Numbers/r/28:4:1)

**את הכבש אחד** פרש״‎י אע״‎פ שכבר נאמר בפרשת ואתה תצוה היא היתה אזהרה לימי המלואים וכאן צואה לדורות. ואם תאמר הרי התם בפרשת תצוה כתיב בהדיא לדורותיכם אלא י״‎ל דמיעוט דורות שנים ולא יותר ולכך צריך האי קרא דכתיב ביה צו דמשמע זירוז מיד מכאן ולדורות.

**Chizkuni, translated and annotated by Eliyahu Munk:**
את הכבש אחד, “the one sheep;” Rashi explains that although this commandment had already been written in Exodus 29,38, at that time it applied only to the days during which the priests were consecrated. Now it applies permanently. If you were to argue that we find the word: לדורותיכם, “for your generations,” in the passage containing this law in Exodus, the word there might be understood as applying only to the minimum number of generations, i.e. two generations, whereas here it applies to all future generations when the Temple would be standing. This is also why it is introduced herewith the word: צו, “issue a command!” (verse 2) (Sifra, at the beginning of the portion Tzav.)


###### Chizkuni, Numbers 28:5:1
[Chizkuni, Numbers 28:5:1](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Chizkuni/s/Numbers/r/28:5:1)

**ועשירית האיפה סלת** מה סולת האמורה במלואים של חטים אף כל סלת האמורה בתורה של חטים.

**Chizkuni, translated and annotated by Eliyahu Munk:**
ועשירית האיפה סלת, “and the tenth of an eyphah of fine flour;” just as the “fine flour” mentioned in the passage in Exodus referred to flour from wheat, so here too it refers to flour ground from wheat. (Exodus 29,42). Whenever the Torah mentions the word סלת, it refers to fine flour made from wheat.


###### Chizkuni, Numbers 28:5:2
[Chizkuni, Numbers 28:5:2](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Chizkuni/s/Numbers/r/28:5:2)

**בשמן כתית** הזית נדוך במדוכה וסוחטים אותו בידיים ואין עוצרים אותו בגת כדי שלא יתמצו בו השמרים.

**Chizkuni, translated and annotated by Eliyahu Munk:**
בשמן כתית, “with beaten oil;” the olives were ground in a mortar and oil resulting was squeezed out by hand. It was not stored in a vat to prevent any residue from accumulating at the bottom of the vat. (B’chor shor)


###### Chizkuni, Numbers 28:5:3
[Chizkuni, Numbers 28:5:3](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Chizkuni/s/Numbers/r/28:5:3)

**רביעת ההין** ג׳‎ לוגין.

**Chizkuni, translated and annotated by Eliyahu Munk:**
רביעית ההין, a quarter of a hin, i.e. three logs.


###### Chizkuni, Numbers 28:6:1
[Chizkuni, Numbers 28:6:1](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Chizkuni/s/Numbers/r/28:6:1)

**עלת תמיד העשיה בהר סיני** מאחר שהקרבתם אותה בסיני כדכתיב וישלח את נערי בני ישראל ויעלו עולות אינני רוצה שתבטל לעולם.

**Chizkuni, translated and annotated by Eliyahu Munk:**
עולת תמיד העשויה בהר סיני, “it is a continual burnt offering which was offered at Mount Sinai. In other words, this practice began when the Jewish people were encamped around Mount Sinai, as we know from Exodus 24,5: וישלח את נערי בני ישראל ויעלו עולות, “Moses sent forth the young men of the Children of Israel and they offered burnt offerings. He intended that this practice should remain in use forever.


###### Chizkuni, Numbers 28:8:1
[Chizkuni, Numbers 28:8:1](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Chizkuni/s/Numbers/r/28:8:1)

**וכנסכו** קאי אנסכי יין ואנסכי מנחה דתמיד הבקר.

**Chizkuni, translated and annotated by Eliyahu Munk:**
וכנסכו, “and as its drinkoffering;” this is a reference to the libation consisting of wine, as well as to the drink offering accompanying the communal gift offering presented every morning.


###### Chizkuni, Numbers 28:9:1
[Chizkuni, Numbers 28:9:1](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Chizkuni/s/Numbers/r/28:9:1)

**וביום השבת** בכל הקרבנות כתיב ביה הקרבה או עשיה ובשבת הואיל ונאסרה בה מלאכה מפני כבודה לא נאמר בקרבנותיה הקרבה ועשיה כאלו אין מלאכה נעשית בהם.

**Chizkuni, translated and annotated by Eliyahu Munk:**
וביום השבת, “and on every Sabbath, etc.” All of the offerings are described as being offered with either the word עשיה, something being carried out, or with the word הקרבה, something being presented. Seeing that basically such activities as offering sacrifices are forbidden on the Sabbath, the Torah avoids the use of these terms in connection with the communal offerings that are mandatory on the Sabbath nonetheless. The reader may therefore be misled by the absence of these words in connection with the communal offerings on the Sabbath.


###### Chizkuni, Numbers 28:9:2
[Chizkuni, Numbers 28:9:2](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Chizkuni/s/Numbers/r/28:9:2)

**שני כבשים** לא הטריח הקב״‎ה במוסף של שבת יותר מדאי אלא המוסף שוה לתמיד. ולא נאמר בה חטאת כמו בשאר מוספין מפני כבוד השבת שאין לשחוט בשבת דבר הנאכל לשום אדם, אלא כל הקרבתו לגבוה ועליו יסדו רצית קרבנותיה. ואע״‎ג דמוספי חטאת קרבין בה כגון בשבת דר״‎ח ושבת דיו״‎ט מ״‎מ במוסף שבת דעלמא עבד רחמנא היכרא.

**Chizkuni, translated and annotated by Eliyahu Munk:**
שני כבשים, “two male sheep” the Torah did not demand more than the minimal as additional communal sacrifices on the Sabbath. In fact that additional offering is equal to the daily morning and evening offerings. No sin offering is offered on the Sabbath as a communal offering, contrary to the musspah, additional offerings on the various festival days. The major reason is that seeing that parts of the sin offerings were meant to be consumed by the priests, the Torah did not want them to benefit from animals that were slaughtered on the Sabbath, something that in their private lives they were not allowed to do on the Sabbath. The Sabbath was “desecrated” only for offerings which were presented only to G-d. This is why the Torah adds the words: רצית קרבנותיה, “You received the offerings pertaining to the Sabbath with goodwill.” The exception to this rule is when New Moon occurs on the Sabbath and there is an additional offering including a sin offering on that day, due to the calendar day occurring on the Sabbath. (B’chor shor) At any rate, on ordinary Sabbath days the Torah made a distinction.


###### Chizkuni, Numbers 28:9:3
[Chizkuni, Numbers 28:9:3](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Chizkuni/s/Numbers/r/28:9:3)

**ונסכו** קאי אנסכי יין.

**Chizkuni, translated and annotated by Eliyahu Munk:**
ונסכו, “and the drink offering thereof.” This again refers to a libation consisting of wine.


###### Chizkuni, Numbers 28:10:1
[Chizkuni, Numbers 28:10:1](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Chizkuni/s/Numbers/r/28:10:1)

**עלת שבת בשבתו** לא נאמר בו ושעיר לכפר ללמדך ביו״‎ט ובראשי חדשים שבקרבנותיהם כתוב חטאת או כפרה והם באים לכפר התקינו שיהו קורין אותן ועולין להם ישראל קריאתו כאילו הקריבום כמו ששנו רבותינו ז״‎ל כל זמן שקורין בהן מעלה אני עליהם כאילו הקריבום לפני אבל קרבן מוסף שבת לא כתיב ביה לא חטאת ולא כפרה ללמדך שאין קרבנותיו באין לכפר לפי ששבת מכפרת, אלא לריח ניחוח הן באים ולכך אין קורין בתורה מוסף שבת כמו האחרים.

**Chizkuni, translated and annotated by Eliyahu Munk:**
עולת שבת בשבתו, “the burnt offering for the Sabbath, on its Sabbath; Festival days and New Moon both have an element of enabling atonement connected to them. This is why the Jewish people are advised of these days ahead of time, and are called upon to do repentance on them. Our sages tell us in the Talmud tractate Megillah folio 31, that as long as we read from the Torah the sections dealing with these days on their respective days or on the Sabbath preceding them, we are considered as if we had offered the sacrifices ordained to be offered on those days even if we had been prevented from doings so, such as when in exile and there being no Temple to do so. [On some of the festivals G-d sits in judgment of parts of His creation, such as the fruit of the earth, the trees, or if there will be sufficient rain, etc.. Since His decisions affect us greatly, doing some penitence even on those days is very appropriate, and is reflected in our liturgy on those days, and we do not restrict ourselves to Rosh Hashanah and the Day of Atonement. Ed.] In connection with the additional communal offerings on the Sabbath, no hint of the day serving as atonement in any form is given. The offerings on that day have only one objective, to provide G-d with a pleasant fragrance from His children, i.e. ריח ניחוח. This is also why the Mussaph prayer on the Sabbath is quite differently worded from the parallel prayers on the festivals. In those prayers the fact that we have been sinful and are therefore still in exile, is not mentioned with a single word or hint.


###### Chizkuni, Numbers 28:10:2
[Chizkuni, Numbers 28:10:2](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Chizkuni/s/Numbers/r/28:10:2)

**ונסכה** קאי אנסכי יין ואנסכי מנחה דעולת תמיד. [על עלת התמיד עם עולת התמיד].

**Chizkuni, translated and annotated by Eliyahu Munk:**
ונסכה, “and its drink offering.” This is a reference to the drink offerings consisting of wine accompanying the daily communal burnt offerings.


###### Chizkuni, Numbers 28:11:1
[Chizkuni, Numbers 28:11:1](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Chizkuni/s/Numbers/r/28:11:1)

**ובראשי חדשיכם** חדש ניסן שכן כתיב בו החדש הזה לכם ראש חדשים.

**Chizkuni, translated and annotated by Eliyahu Munk:**
ובראשי חדשיכם, “and on your New moon days, etc.;” this paragraph refers specifically to the day ushering in the month of Nissan, the month in which we were redeemed from Egypt our national birthdayas specifically stated in Exodus 12,2.


###### Chizkuni, Numbers 28:11:2
[Chizkuni, Numbers 28:11:2](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Chizkuni/s/Numbers/r/28:11:2)

**פרים בני בקר שנים ואיל אחד** וכן מוסף של פסח ושל עצרת לפי שבראשי חדשים שהן תחלת החדש וברגלים שהן באסיפה הוסיף במוסף שלהם אבל של ראש השנה ויום הכפורים ושמיני עצרת אין בהם אלא פר אחד בראש השנה משום דאיכא שני מוספים של ר״‎ח ושל ר״‎ה. וביום הכפורים אילו ופר של אהרן ושעירי הגורלות משום הכי סגי להו בפר אחד. ובשמיני עצרת פר אחד כנגד כל ישראל גוי אחד.

**Chizkuni, translated and annotated by Eliyahu Munk:**
פרים בני בקר שנים ואיל אחד, “two young bullocks and one ram;” The same animals are to be offered as mussaph offerings on Passover and on the festival of weeks, 50 days later; New Moon and these festivals are occasions when a great number of Jewish people are assembled around the Temple in Jerusalem. On Rosh Hashanah, the Day of Atonement and Sh’mini Atzeret, only one young bullock is offered as part of the mussaph offering. On Rosh Hashanah the reason is that there is anyways another bullock that is the burnt offering of the new Moon which occurs on the same date. On the day of Atonement, the bullock offered by the High Priest on his own behalf consists of a young bullock. Also, one of the male goats serves as a sin offering for the whole people, a source for their atonement on that day. On Shimini Atzeret, after for seven days a total of 70 bullocks had been offered on behalf of the seventy nations of the world, one, such young bullock is offered on behalf of the Jewish people.


###### Chizkuni, Numbers 28:14:1
[Chizkuni, Numbers 28:14:1](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Chizkuni/s/Numbers/r/28:14:1)

**בחדשו** בהתחדשו בשעת החדוש צריך להקריב קרבן כזה לכל חדשי השנה.

**Chizkuni, translated and annotated by Eliyahu Munk:**
בחדשו, of every new moon, i.e. at the time when the lunar cycle renews itself. It must be offered on that day, and no other day.


###### Chizkuni, Numbers 28:15:1
[Chizkuni, Numbers 28:15:1](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Chizkuni/s/Numbers/r/28:15:1)

**ושעיר עזים** לכפר על וישחטו שעיר עזים במכירת יוסף. לחטאת לה׳‎ לפי שהוא ראשון כתיב ביה לה׳‎ שיהא לשם שמים וכן כולם.

**Chizkuni, translated and annotated by Eliyahu Munk:**
ושעיר עזים, “as well as one he-goat;” this is to serve as sin offering for the whole Jewish community. It symbolises the guilt of the whole Jewish people, i.e. the 10 brothers of Joseph who had been involved in his sale, and who had never offered an atonement offering at the time. In connection with this he-goat, the Torah adds the words: “for the Lord,” meaning that all of these sin offerings had to be offered as “for the sake of heaven.”


###### Chizkuni, Numbers 28:15:2
[Chizkuni, Numbers 28:15:2](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Chizkuni/s/Numbers/r/28:15:2)

**על עלת** עם עולת.

**Chizkuni, translated and annotated by Eliyahu Munk:**
על עולת “together with the burnt offerings already mentioned.”


###### Chizkuni, Numbers 28:15:3
[Chizkuni, Numbers 28:15:3](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Chizkuni/s/Numbers/r/28:15:3)

**על עלת התמיד יעשה ונסכו** סרסהו עם עולת התמיד ונסכו של תמיד יעשה החטאת.

**Chizkuni, translated and annotated by Eliyahu Munk:**
על עולת התמיד יעשה ונסכו, “it shall be offered as a continual burnt offering together with its drink offering.”


###### Chizkuni, Numbers 28:15:4
[Chizkuni, Numbers 28:15:4](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Chizkuni/s/Numbers/r/28:15:4)

**ונסכו** קאי אנסכי יין ואנסכי מנחה דעולת תמיד.

**Chizkuni, translated and annotated by Eliyahu Munk:**
ונסכו, this word, as on previous occasions, refers to the libation consisting of wine as a gift offering on a daily basis.


###### Chizkuni, Numbers 28:18:1
[Chizkuni, Numbers 28:18:1](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Chizkuni/s/Numbers/r/28:18:1)

**מקרא קודש** לשון מקרה כתרגומו קרי מערעי במאכל ובמשתה ובכסות נקיה.

**Chizkuni, translated and annotated by Eliyahu Munk:**
מקרא קדש, “a holy convocation.” Although the word מקרא appears with the letter א at the end, it is to be understood as if it had been spelled with the letter ה at the end meaning: ”a happening.” The Targum renders the verse as referring to a מערע, “a happy gathering involving food and drink, and fancy dress.”


###### Chizkuni, Numbers 28:18:2
[Chizkuni, Numbers 28:18:2](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Chizkuni/s/Numbers/r/28:18:2)

**כל מלאכת עבדה** מלאכה של עבודה אסורה. וכל מלאכת אוכל נפש מותרת לכך כתיב כאן **כל מלאכת עבודה לא תעשו** אבל בשבת ויום הכפורים שאסורים בכל מלאכה כתיב כל מלאכה לא תעשו.

**Chizkuni, translated and annotated by Eliyahu Munk:**
כל מלאכת עבודה, “any manner of servile work;” this type of work is prohibited to be carried out on such a day, whereas work involving the preparation of food and drink is permissible. This is the reason why the Torah here did not write as it did concerning Sabbath and on Yom Kippur: כל מלאכה לא תעשו, “you must not perform any manner of מלאכה, but on Yom Tov only forbade: “servile type of work.” כל מלאכת עבודה.


###### Chizkuni, Numbers 28:19:1
[Chizkuni, Numbers 28:19:1](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Chizkuni/s/Numbers/r/28:19:1)

**תמימם יהיו לכם** אבל אם יהיו בעלי מומין הרי אתם מחללין שבת בשחיטתן ובפשיטתן שהרי אינן קרבין ועל כן נאמר קדשי בזית ואת שבתותי חללת ולכך לא כתיב תמימים בראש חדש הואיל ואינו אסור בעשיית מלאכה.

**Chizkuni, translated and annotated by Eliyahu Munk:**
תמימים יהיו לכם, “they shall be free from blemish, for you.” If animals used as communal offerings on the Sabbaths or festivals should have a blemish disqualifying them as offerings, slaughtering such animals on the Sabbath or festival would be a grave sin. It would even be forbidden to remove the skins of such animals on either the Sabbath or the festival. This is why the prophet Ezekiel, Ezekiel 22,8 stated: קדשי בזית ואת שבתותי חללת, “you have despised My holy things, and you have profaned My Sabbaths.” This is also why no mention is made of the animals for the offerings on New Moon having to be free from blemish. It is clear that all animals for offerings must be free from blemishes on any day of the week, but if these animals are offered on a day when certain work must not be performed, if such an animal is nonetheless being offered, the person doing so has committed an additional sin, that of profaning the holiness of the day.


###### Chizkuni, Numbers 28:24:1
[Chizkuni, Numbers 28:24:1](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Chizkuni/s/Numbers/r/28:24:1)

**כאלה תעשו ליום שבעת ימים** למעלה בתורת כהנים בפרשת אמור דמשתעי בעניני הארץ כמו שפי׳‎ להלן מזכיר הרגלים והתבואות הרגילות לבא בהן לפיכך הזכיר הקרבנות הבאות בגלל העומר ושתי הלחם אבל כאן לא הזכיר רק הקרבנות הבאים על היום.

**Chizkuni, translated and annotated by Eliyahu Munk:**
כאלה תעשו ליום שבעת ימים, “After this manner you shall present offerings for seven consecutive days;” previously, when this festival had been discussed in Leviticus in the latter part of chapter 23, where not the offerings but the location of them in our own land are the central focus of the Torah, the blessings related to these festivals are highlighted, and therefore our gratitude for them. In this chapter the Torah highlights the details of the offerings to be presented on those occasions.


###### Chizkuni, Numbers 28:24:2
[Chizkuni, Numbers 28:24:2](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Chizkuni/s/Numbers/r/28:24:2)

**ונסכו** קאי אלחם אשה דסליק מיניה והוא נסכי יין ונסכי מנחה.

**Chizkuni, translated and annotated by Eliyahu Munk:**
ונסכו, and its drink offering;” the verse refers to the words: 'לחם אשה לה, at the beginning of our verse, i.e. “the food of the offering for G-d made by fire;” what is meant specifically are the drink offerings accompanying the animal offerings as gift offerings, מנחה, including the meal (baked flour) parts of such offerings.


###### Chizkuni, Numbers 28:26:1
[Chizkuni, Numbers 28:26:1](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Chizkuni/s/Numbers/r/28:26:1)

**וביום הבכורים** על שם שמשם והלאה מביאין בכורי אדמה קורהו יום הבכורים לא פי׳‎ הכתוב באיזה חדש ובכמה בו וכבר פרשתי הטעם בפרשת אמור.

**Chizkuni, translated and annotated by Eliyahu Munk:**
וביום הבכורים, “And on the day of offering the first fruits, etc,” The reason why this day is called: “the day of the first fruits,” is that commencing with that date the farmer can present such fruit from the current harvest in the Temple as his gift to G-d, i.e. the priests, His terrestrial representatives. The verse failed to mention the month, and from which day of that month this regulation applies. I have already explained the reason for this omission in my commentary on Leviticus23,21.


###### Chizkuni, Numbers 28:26:2
[Chizkuni, Numbers 28:26:2](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Chizkuni/s/Numbers/r/28:26:2)

**בשבעתיכם** מתורגם בעצרתיכון מכאן אנו קורין לחג שבועות עצרת.

**Chizkuni, translated and annotated by Eliyahu Munk:**
בשבועותיכם, “on your feast of weeks;” the word is translated by the Targum as בעצרתיכון; since the Targum appeared, or in deference to its author, in the rabbinic literature the name of the festival has been changed to Atzeret. [Presumably, this is on account of the stoppage of counting the omer. Ed.] Previously, this festival had been known as Shavuot.


###### Chizkuni, Numbers 28:30:1
[Chizkuni, Numbers 28:30:1](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Chizkuni/s/Numbers/r/28:30:1)

**שעיר עזים אחד** תנן התם בסוף מסכת ר״‎ה דבני מערבא ר׳‎ משרשיא אומר בשם רבי אחא בכל הקרבנות כתוב חטאת ובעצרת אין כתיב חטאת אמר להם הקב״‎ה לישראל כיון שקבלתם עליכם את עול תורתי מעלה אני עליכם כאילו לא חטאתם מימכם.

**Chizkuni, translated and annotated by Eliyahu Munk:**
שעיר עזים אחד, “one male goat;” we have a statement recorded near the end of the Babylonian Talmud tractate Rosh Hashanah, that in the land of Israel the scholars quoting Rabbi Mesharshia in the name of Rabbi Acha, draws attention to the fact that whereas with all the other such sacrifices the term used is חטאת, “sinoffering,” whereas here the reference to sin is omitted. He explains by quoting the Lord saying to the Israelites: “seeing that this is the anniversary of the day on which you voluntarily accepted the yoke of My Torah, I consider this as if you had not committed any sins to be atoned for prior to this day.” (Jerusalem Talmud Rosh Hashanah chapter 4, halachah 10)


###### Chizkuni, Numbers 28:31:1
[Chizkuni, Numbers 28:31:1](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Chizkuni/s/Numbers/r/28:31:1)

**מלבד עלת התמיד** ואם תאמר ואמאי לא כתיב מלבד שתי הלחם ושבעת כבשים ופר ושני אילים ושעיר ושבעת כבשים הבאים עמהם כמו שכתוב מלבד עולת החדש ומנחתה וגו׳‎ מלבד חטאת הכפורים ועולת התמיד אלא יש לומר מדכתיב בהקריבכם מנחה חדשה הרי כבר הזכירה ועל המנחה הם באים ותו לא צריך.

**Chizkuni, translated and annotated by Eliyahu Munk:**
מלבד עולת התמיד, “beside the daily burnt offering;” if you were to ask why the Torah did not write: beside the two showbreads, etc. etc., which are all part of the offerings presented on Atzeret (as the Torah had done in connection with the New moon offerings, and the offerings on the Day of Atonement?) We would respond to this question by reminding the reader that earlier, in verse 26, these details had already been recorded so that there was no need to repeat them here again. Beside they referred to the gift offerings, not the principal offerings.

**ונסכיהם** קאי אנסכי יין דיום הבכורים ואנסכי יין ואנסכי מנחה דעולת התמיד.

**Chizkuni, translated and annotated by Eliyahu Munk:**
ונסכיהם, “and their drink offerings.” This refers to the wine libations on the day of Shavuot and the meal offerings accompanying the principal offerings.
