The second day indicates the ongoing nature of the sacrifices required during this feast, which lasted for seven days. The Feast of Tabernacles, also known as Sukkot, was a time of rejoicing and thanksgiving for the harvest and God's provision during the Israelites' wilderness journey. It is a reminder of God's faithfulness and the importance of obedience to His commands.<p><b>you are to present</b><br>The act of presenting offerings is a central aspect of worship in the Old Testament. It signifies the people's dedication and submission to God. The offerings were a way to maintain a right relationship with God, acknowledging His sovereignty and seeking His favor. This act of presentation is a precursor to the New Testament understanding of offering oneself as a living sacrifice, as seen in <a href="/romans/12.htm">Romans 12:1</a>.<p><b>twelve young bulls</b><br>The number twelve often symbolizes completeness or the twelve tribes of Israel. The young bulls represent strength and vitality, and their sacrifice is a significant offering to God. Bulls were considered valuable and were often used in significant sacrifices, indicating the importance of this festival. This offering can be seen as a type of Christ, who was the ultimate sacrifice, complete and perfect, for the sins of humanity.<p><b>two rams</b><br>Rams were also valuable animals used in sacrifices, often associated with atonement and consecration. The number two may symbolize witness or testimony, as seen in the requirement for two witnesses in legal matters (<a href="/deuteronomy/19-15.htm">Deuteronomy 19:15</a>). The ram is also a type of Christ, as seen in the substitutionary sacrifice of the ram in place of Isaac in <a href="/genesis/22.htm">Genesis 22</a>, foreshadowing Christ's substitutionary atonement for sinners.<p><b>and fourteen male lambs a year old</b><br>Lambs are frequently used in sacrificial contexts, symbolizing innocence and purity. The number fourteen, being double seven, may indicate a double measure of spiritual perfection or completeness. The specification of "a year old" suggests the lambs are in their prime, representing the best offering to God. The lamb is a direct 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>all unblemished</b><br>The requirement for the animals to be unblemished underscores the need for purity and perfection in offerings to God. This reflects God's holiness and the standard required for atonement. In the New Testament, Christ is described as a lamb without blemish or defect (<a href="/1_peter/1-19.htm">1 Peter 1:19</a>), fulfilling the requirement for a perfect sacrifice and highlighting His sinless nature.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/i/israelites.htm">Israelites</a></b><br>The people of God who are receiving these instructions for offerings during the Feast of Tabernacles.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/topical/m/moses.htm">Moses</a></b><br>The leader of the Israelites who conveyed God's laws and instructions to the people.<br><br>3. <b><a href="/topical/f/feast_of_tabernacles.htm">Feast of Tabernacles (Sukkot)</a></b><br>A significant Jewish festival commemorating the Israelites' journey through the wilderness and God's provision.<br><br>4. <b><a href="/topical/s/sacrificial_offerings.htm">Sacrificial Offerings</a></b><br>The specific animals required for the offerings, symbolizing atonement and dedication to God.<br><br>5. <b><a href="/topical/t/tabernacle.htm">Tabernacle</a></b><br>The dwelling place of God among His people, where these offerings were to be presented.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><b><a href="/topical/u/understanding_sacrifice.htm">Understanding Sacrifice</a></b><br>The detailed instructions for offerings remind us of the importance of approaching God with reverence and obedience.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/s/symbolism_of_perfection.htm">Symbolism of Perfection</a></b><br>The requirement for unblemished animals points to the need for purity and holiness in our lives.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/g/god's_provision.htm">God's Provision</a></b><br>The Feast of Tabernacles celebrates God's provision, encouraging us to trust in His faithfulness in our own lives.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/c/christ_as_fulfillment.htm">Christ as Fulfillment</a></b><br>The sacrificial system foreshadows Christ's ultimate sacrifice, inviting us to live in the freedom and grace He provides.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/c/community_worship.htm">Community Worship</a></b><br>The collective nature of these offerings emphasizes the importance of communal worship and unity in the body of Christ.<div class="vheading2">Lists and Questions</div><a href="/top10/lessons_from_numbers_29.htm">Top 10 Lessons from Numbers 29</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/how_did_israelites_supply_many_sacrifice_animals.htm">How could the Israelites realistically supply the large number of animals required for the consecutive sacrifices in Numbers 29?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/were_numbers_29_rituals_historically_feasible.htm">What evidence exists that these extensive rituals, detailed in Numbers 29, were historically observed or feasible at that scale?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/do_numbers_29_offerings_conflict_with_isaiah.htm">How do the repeated animal offerings in Numbers 29 align or conflict with the later prophetic criticism of sacrifices (e.g., Isaiah 1:11)?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/does_archaeology_support_numbers_29.htm">Is there any archaeological record corroborating the elaborate sacrificial system described in Numbers 29?</a><a name="commentary" id="commentary"></a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><span class="versiontext"><a href="/commentaries/numbers/29-17.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">On the second</span><br /><span class="heb">הַשֵּׁנִ֗י</span> <span class="translit">(haš·šê·nî)</span><br /><span class="parse">Article | Number -
