The ox and ram were significant animals in sacrificial rituals, symbolizing strength and leadership. The peace offering was unique in that it was shared between the altar, the priests, and the offerer, symbolizing fellowship with God. This offering foreshadows the ultimate peace offering, Jesus Christ, who reconciles humanity to God. The use of an ox and a ram highlights the importance of the sacrifice, as these were valuable animals, indicating the seriousness of the offering and the desire for peace with God.and a grain offering mixed with oil The grain offering, often accompanying other sacrifices, symbolized dedication and gratitude to God for His provision. Mixing it with oil, a symbol of the Holy Spirit, signifies the anointing and sanctification of the offering. This offering represents the work of human hands, acknowledging God's provision and blessing. The grain offering points to Christ as the Bread of Life, who sustains and nourishes believers. The use of oil also connects to the anointing of kings and priests, prefiguring Christ's role as the Anointed One.For today the LORD will appear to you.’” This phrase emphasizes the immediacy and significance of God's presence among His people. The appearance of the LORD signifies His approval and acceptance of the sacrifices, as well as His desire to dwell among His people. This moment foreshadows the ultimate revelation of God in Jesus Christ, who is Emmanuel, "God with us." The anticipation of God's appearance underscores the holiness required to approach Him and the grace extended to the Israelites through the sacrificial system.
