Contextual Overview

10 The leaders gave gifts to set apart the altar on the day the oil was poured on it. They gave their gifts in front of the altar. 11 Then the Lord said to Moses, "Let one leader each day give the gifts to set apart the altar." 12 The one who gave his gift on the first day was Nahshon the son of Amminadab, of the family of Judah. 13 His gift was one silver dish that weighed as much as 130 pieces of silver, and one silver dish that weighed as much as seventy pieces of silver. They were weighed by the weight of silver agreed upon for the meeting tent. Both of them were full of fine flour mixed with oil for a grain gift. 14 And he gave one gold dish weighing as much as ten pieces of silver, full of special perfume. 15 He gave one bull, one ram, and one male lamb one year old, for a burnt gift in worship. 16 He gave one male goat for a sin gift. 17 For the peace gifts he gave two bulls, five rams, five male goats, and five male lambs one year old. This was the gift given by Nahshon the son of Amminadab. 18 On the second day Nethanel the son of Zuar, leader of Issachar, gave a gift in worship. 19 He gave for his gift one silver dish that weighed as much as 130 pieces of silver, and one silver dish weighing as much as seventy pieces of silver. They were weighed by the weight of silver agreed upon for the meeting tent. Both of them were full of fine flour mixed with oil for a grain gift.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

One kid of the goats for a sin offering. Though these offerings of the princes were by way of thanksgiving, and to express their joy and gladness at the erection of the tabernacle, its altars, and the service thereof; yet as this might not be without sin, which attends the best and purest performances of men, a sin offering was required, teaching us to look to Christ, who was made an offering for sin, for the taking away the sins of our holy things.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The several princes make their offerings in the order assigned to the tribes Numbers 2:0. It was doubtless the tribes themselves which presented these gifts through their chiefs. The twelve offerings are strictly alike, and were offered on twelve separate days.
