The use of oxen, valuable animals in ancient agrarian societies, signifies the importance and costliness of the offering. Oxen were often used for labor, making them a significant sacrifice. This offering symbolizes reconciliation and communion with God, reflecting the peace and fellowship believers seek with Him.<p><b>five rams</b><br>Rams were often used in sacrificial offerings and symbolize strength and leadership. The number five can represent grace in biblical numerology, suggesting that this offering is an act of grace and favor. Rams were also used in the consecration of priests, linking this offering to themes of dedication and service to God.<p><b>five male goats</b><br>Goats were commonly used in sin offerings, symbolizing the removal of sin and impurity. The inclusion of goats in the peace offering highlights the need for purification and atonement before fellowship with God can be fully realized. The number five again emphasizes grace, suggesting that God's grace covers the sins of the people.<p><b>and five male lambs a year old</b><br>Lambs, especially those a year old, were considered pure and without blemish, making them suitable for sacrifice. They are often seen as a type of Christ, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world. The repetition of the number five underscores the theme of grace and divine favor.<p><b>This was the offering of Shelumiel son of Zurishaddai.</b><br>Shelumiel, whose name means "God is my peace," was the leader of the tribe of Simeon. His offering represents the tribe's dedication and desire for peace with God. Zurishaddai, meaning "my rock is the Almighty," reflects the strength and foundation found in God. This lineage emphasizes the importance of faith and reliance on God as the source of peace and strength.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/n/nashon.htm">Nashon</a></b><br>The leader of the tribe of Judah, who brought the offering described in this verse.
