Numbers 28

This chapter was 70% done when I started because of its significant overlap with parts of Leviticus. So I did the top of my list even though it is time for a respite from the cult with a few more proverbs. There were also a number of other changes I caught in other places (supposedly complete!) while doing this chapter.  Anytime you want to help, let me know in a comment. :)

I had not noted before that the cult originates at Sinai. Here we have the continual sacrifice, Sabbath offerings, offering in the new moon (moon = month), the Passover and the feast of unleavened bread, the feast of Weeks, and (chapter 29) the feast of the 7th month, the atonement, and the feast of Tabernacles.

I am startled at the tone of verse 2. The command on the opening high C. These commands are definitive. I was told this morning by a person I would believe, that the strong drink is a mixture of wine and the juice of the poppy, i.e. laudanum. It is the same strong drink recommended for those who are perishing (Proverbs 31:6).

Besides is not beside, as if side by side. That word לבד seems to have the sense of in addition to. It is from בדד, separate from. I have left these two separate in my data, a decision subject to change... (as are all such decisions).

I find the repetition, עִשָּׂרוֹן֙ עִשָּׂר֔וֹן, rather perplexing. It likely is an iteration of sorts since it always applies to a set of lambs. Do this for each lamb...
