With each lamb for the Whole-Burnt-Offering or other sacrifice, prepare a quart of oil and a quart of wine as a Drink-Offering.

1 And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying, 2 Speake vnto the children of Israel, and say vnto them, When ye be come into the land of your habitations, which I giue vnto you, 3 And will make an offering by fire vnto the Lord, a burnt offering or a sacrifice in performing a vow, or in a free will offering, or in your solemne feasts, to make a sweet sauour vnto the Lord, of the herd or of the flocke: 4 Then shall he that offereth his offering vnto the Lord, bring a meat offring of a tenth deale of flowre, mingled with the fourth part of an Hyn of oyle. 5 And the fourth part of an Hyn of wine for a drinke offring shalt thou prepare, with the burnt offering or sacrifice for one lambe. 6 Or for a ramme, thou shalt prepare for a meate offering two tenth deales of flowre mingled with the third part of an Hyn of oyle. 7 And for a drinke offering, thou shalt offer the third part of an Hyn of wine, for a sweete sauour vnto the Lord. 8 And when thou preparest a bullocke for a burnt offering, or for a sacrifice in performing a vow, or peace offerings vnto the Lord: 9 Then shall hee bring with a bullocke a meate offering of three tenth deales of flowre, mingled with halfe an Hyn of oyle. 10 And thou shalt bring for a drinke offering halfe an Hyn of wine, for an offering made by fire of a sweet sauour vnto the Lord.

Numbers 14:12; and their defeat at Hormah, Numbers 14:45: and lest their posterity should be discouraged, and despair of ever enjoying the good land:

saying; as follows.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
