Besides, the vessels were all sacrificial vessels, and the animals were all clean animals, such as were proper for sacrifices; and therefore every thing was intended to point out that the people were to be a holy people, fully dedicated to God, and that God was to dwell among them; hence there were <I>fine flour<\/I> and <I>oil<\/I>, for a <I>meat-offering<\/I>, <span class='bible'>Nu 7:13<\/span>. A <I>bullock<\/I>, a <I>ram<\/I>, and a <I>lamb<\/I>, for a <I>burnt-offering<\/I>, <span class='bible'>Nu 7:15-16<\/span>. <I>Five oxen, five rams, five he-goats<\/I>, and <I>five lambs<\/I>, for a <I>peace-offering<\/I>, <span class='bible'>Nu 7:17<\/span>. Thus, as the priests, altars, &amp;c., were anointed, and the tabernacle dedicated, so the people, by this offering, became consecrated to God.  Therefore every act here was a religious act.<\/P> <P> <\/P> <P>  &#8220;Thus,&#8221; says Mr. Ainsworth, &#8220;by sacrifices of all sorts, figuring the death of Christ, and the benefits that were to be received thereby, they reconciled and made themselves and theirs acceptable to God, and were made partakers of his grace, to remission of sins, and sanctification through faith, and in the work of the Holy Ghost, in the communion and feeling whereof they rejoiced before God.&#8221;<\/P><\/p>\n<h4 align='right'><i><b>Fuente: Adam Clarke&#8217;s Commentary and Critical Notes on the Bible<\/b><\/i><\/h4>\n<p><P> <B>Ten shekels of gold, <\/B>and therefore belonging to the altar of incense. <\/P> <\/p>\n<h4 align='right'><i><b>Fuente: English Annotations on the Holy Bible by Matthew Poole<\/b><\/i><\/h4>\n<p><strong>One spoon of ten [shekels] of gold, c.<\/strong> Its weight was according to the shekels, its matter of gold it weighed four ounces, one drachm, and nine grains, and was worth about seven pounds and ten shillings of our money:<\/p>\n<p><strong>full of incense<\/strong>; this looks as if this spoon was designed for the golden altar of incense, which might be at this time also dedicated; but Jarchi understands it as for the altar of burnt offering, and observes, we never find incense belonging to a private person, nor to the outward altar (the altar of burnt offering), but this only, and which was temporary.<\/p>\n<h4 align='right'><i><b>Fuente: John Gill&#8217;s Exposition of the Entire Bible<\/b><\/i><\/h4>\n<p> <strong> 14<\/strong>. <strong> <\/strong> <strong> One spoon of gold, full of incense <\/strong> Since incense symbolizes prayer, there is here strikingly typified the duty of accompanying our gifts to the Lord with earnest supplication.
