Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

that it was anointed: Numbers 7:1, Numbers 7:10, Numbers 7:84

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And all the oxen for the sacrifice of the peace offerings [were] twenty and four bullocks,.... Each prince bringing two:

the rams sixty, the he goats sixty, the lambs of the first year sixty; five of each being brought by every prince; so that the whole number of beasts for peace offerings only, which were to feast with, were two hundred four;

this [was] the dedication of the altar after that it was anointed; this clearly shows, that it was not the precise day the altar was anointed the dedication was made, but some little time after; even that the first prince brought his presents and offerings for the dedication of it.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The aggregate worth, by weight, of the whole of the offerings was about 438 British pounds: But the real worth of such a sum, when measured by the prices of clothing and food at that time, must have been vastly greater.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Numbers 7:88. After that it was anointed. — By the anointing the altar was consecrated to God; by this dedication it was solemnly appointed to that service for which it had been erected.
