A "quarter hin" is an ancient measurement equivalent to about one liter or a little more than a quart. This specific measurement indicates the precision and care required in worship practices, reflecting the importance of obedience to God's commands. The drink offering was typically wine, symbolizing joy and celebration, and it accompanied the burnt offering of a lamb, which was a daily sacrifice. This practice underscores the idea of completeness in worship, where both food (the lamb) and drink (the wine) are offered to God. The lamb itself is a type of Christ, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world (<a href="/john/1-29.htm">John 1:29</a>).<p><b>Pour out the offering of fermented drink to the LORD in the sanctuary area.</b><br>The act of pouring out the drink offering "to the LORD" signifies dedication and consecration to God. The use of "fermented drink" indicates that the offering was not just any liquid but one that had undergone a process of transformation, much like the spiritual transformation expected of believers. The sanctuary area, where this offering was made, was a holy place, set apart for worship and the presence of God. This location emphasizes the sacredness of the act and the reverence required in approaching God. The pouring out of the drink offering can also be seen as a foreshadowing of Christ's blood poured out for humanity, as referenced in the New Testament (<a href="/luke/22-20.htm">Luke 22:20</a>). The sanctuary, being the center of Israelite worship, points to the future heavenly sanctuary where Christ intercedes for believers (<a href="/hebrews/8.htm">Hebrews 8:1-2</a>).<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_sanctuary.htm">The Sanctuary</a></b><br>The sacred place where the Israelites were to offer sacrifices and offerings to God.

In the parallel passage in Exodus, the drink offering was to consist of "the fourth part of an hin of wine" (<a href="/numbers/29-40.htm" title="And Moses told the children of Israel according to all that the LORD commanded Moses.">Numbers 29:40</a>). (Comp. <a href="/numbers/15-5.htm" title="And the fourth part of an hin of wine for a drink offering shall you prepare with the burnt offering or sacrifice, for one lamb.">Numbers 15:5</a>.) In <a href="/exodus/30-9.htm" title="You shall offer no strange incense thereon, nor burnt sacrifice, nor meat offering; neither shall you pour drink offering thereon.">Exodus 30:9</a> it is forbidden to pour any drink offering upon the altar of incense, from which passage it has been inferred that the drink offerings were poured upon the altar of burnt sacrifice.<p><div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/pulpit/numbers/28.htm">Pulpit Commentary</a></div><span class="cmt_sub_title">Verse 7.</span> - <span class="cmt_word">In the holy place.</span> <span class="hebrew">בַּקֹּדֶשׁ</span>. Septuagint, <span class="greek">ἐν τῷ ἀγίῳ</span>. Josephus paraphrases this by <span class="greek">περὶ τὸν βωμόν</span> ('Ant.,' 3:10), and so the Targum of Onkelos; Jonathan and the Targum of Palestine render, "from the vessels of the sanctuary." The former would seem to be the real meaning of the original. There is nowhere any specific direction as to the ritual of the drink offering (see on Leviticus 23, and <a href="/numbers/15-7.htm">Numbers 15:7, 10</a>), nor is it certain whether it was poured at the foot of the altar (as apparently stated in Ecclus. 1. 15) or poured upon the flesh of the sacrifice on the altar (as seems to be implied in <a href="/philippians/2-17.htm">Philippians 2:17</a>). <span class="cmt_word">The strong wine.</span> <span class="hebrew">שֵׁכָר</span>. Septuagint, <span class="greek">σίκερα</span>. The Targums render it "old wine," because the drink offering was in every other instance ordered to be made with wine (<a href="/exodus/29-40.htm">Exodus 29:40</a>, etc.). <span class="accented">Shecar</span>, however, was not wine, but strong drink other than wine (such as we call "spirits"), and it is invariably used in that sense in contradistinction to wine (see on Leviticus 10:9; Numbers 6:3, etc.). It can only be supposed that the difficulty of procuring wine in the wilderness had caused the coarser and commoner liquor to be substituted for it. It is certainly remarkable that the mention of <span class="accented">shecar</span> should be retained at a time when wine must have been easily obtainable, and was about to become abundant (<a href="/deuteronomy/8-8.htm">Deuteronomy 8:8</a>). As it would seem impossible that <span class="accented">shecar</span> should have been substituted for wine after the settlement in Canaan, its mention here may be accepted as evidence of the wilderness-origin of this particular ordinance. The quantity ordained (about a quart for each lamb) was very considerable. <span class="p"><br /><br /></span><span class="versiontext"><a href="/commentaries/numbers/28-7.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a></span><span class="p"><br /><br /><br /></span><a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Hebrew</div><span class="word">And the drink offering</span><br /><span class="heb">וְנִסְכּוֹ֙</span> <span class="translit">(wə·nis·kōw)</span><br /><span class="parse">Conjunctive waw | Noun -
