Exegetical and Hermeneutical Commentary of Numbers 7:87
All the oxen for the burnt offering [were] twelve bullocks, the rams twelve, the lambs of the first year twelve, with their meat offering: and the kids of the goats for sin offering twelve.
The meat-offering was not mentioned before, because it was sufficiently understood from the law which required it, Num 15:3-5, but for greater assurance is here expressed.

All the oxen for the burnt offering [were] twelve bullocks,…. According to the number of the princes and their tribes, and so,
the rams twelve, the lambs of the first year twelve; which were also for the burnt offering:
with their meat offering; which always went along with the burnt offering:
and the kids of the goats, for a sin offering, twelve; thus the twelve princes, and by them the twelve tribes, expressed their faith in Christ, the antitype of those sacrifices, and their hope of his coming into the world to be a sacrifice for sin, and of their atonement, reconciliation, peace, pardon, and salvation by him; see Ac 26:6.

Num 7:87-88. Their meat-offering Which was not mentioned before, because it was sufficiently understood from the law which required it. After it was anointed Which words are very conveniently added to explain in what sense he had so often said that this was done in the day when it was anointed Namely, not exactly, but in a latitude, a little after it was anointed.
