The Hebrew root for "burnt offerings" is "olah," which signifies something that ascends, as the smoke of the offering rises to God. This act of regular sacrifice underscores the importance of maintaining a constant relationship with God, acknowledging His sovereignty and seeking His favor. Historically, this practice was central to the Israelites' covenant relationship with God, serving as a reminder of their need for atonement and dedication.<p><b>to the LORD</b><br />The term "LORD" in this context is derived from the Hebrew "YHWH," the sacred and personal name of God revealed to Moses. This name signifies God's eternal presence and unchanging nature. Offering sacrifices to the LORD was an act of worship and reverence, recognizing Him as the ultimate authority and sustainer of life. It reflects the Israelites' understanding of God as both transcendent and immanent, deeply involved in the lives of His people.<p><b>on the altar of burnt offerings</b><br />The "altar of burnt offerings" was a central fixture in the tabernacle and later the temple, symbolizing the place where humanity meets the divine. Constructed according to specific divine instructions, the altar was a sacred space where sacrifices were made to atone for sin and express devotion. Archaeological findings have provided insights into the construction and use of altars in ancient Israel, highlighting their significance in religious practice and community life.<p><b>morning and evening</b><br />The phrase "morning and evening" indicates the regularity and rhythm of worship in Israelite life. These daily sacrifices, known as the Tamid offerings, were a perpetual reminder of God's constant presence and the need for continual devotion. This practice reflects the biblical principle of seeking God at all times, beginning and ending each day with acts of worship and submission to His will.<p><b>according to all that is written in the Law of the LORD</b><br />This phrase underscores the importance of adhering to the divine instructions given in the Torah, the first five books of the Bible. The "Law of the LORD" provided a comprehensive guide for worship, ethics, and community life, reflecting God's covenant with Israel. By following these written commands, the Israelites demonstrated their commitment to living in accordance with God's will, ensuring that their worship was not only heartfelt but also obedient to His revealed word.<p><b>which He commanded Israel</b><br />The phrase "which He commanded Israel" highlights the covenant relationship between God and His chosen people. God's commands were not arbitrary but were given for the benefit and holiness of Israel, setting them apart as a nation dedicated to Him. This divine mandate reflects the broader biblical narrative of God's desire for a people who would reflect His character and purposes in the world, serving as a light to the nations.<div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/pulpit/1_chronicles/16.htm">Pulpit Commentary</a></div><span class="cmt_sub_title">Verse 40.</span> -
