Commentary for Numbers 29:19

**Numbers 29:19 Summary:**
Numbers 29:19 is part of a larger section in the book of Numbers that outlines the offerings for the Feast of Tabernacles (Sukkot), which is one of the three major festivals in the Jewish calendar (Leviticus 23:33-43). This verse specifically refers to the sacrifices to be offered on the eighth day of the festival, which is a separate holy occasion known as Shemini Atzeret.

**Themes:**
1. **Atonement and Purification:** The sin offering of a goat symbolizes the need for atonement and purification from sin, a central theme in Israelite worship.
2. **Fellowship with God:** The offerings, including the sin offering, were part of the ritual to maintain fellowship with God and to celebrate His presence among His people.
3. **Communal Worship:** The detailed instructions for sacrifices underscore the importance of communal worship and the collective participation in religious observances.
4. **Thanksgiving:** The Feast of Tabernacles is a time of thanksgiving for the harvest and a commemoration of God's provision and protection during the wilderness wanderings.

**Historical Context:**
The book of Numbers, given to Moses by God, provides regulations and narratives concerning the Israelites after their exodus from Egypt, as they journey through the wilderness on their way to the Promised Land. The laws and rituals were part of the Mosaic Covenant, which governed the religious and social life of ancient Israel.

The offerings described in Numbers 29 would have been conducted by the Levitical priests in the Tabernacle, and later in the Temple in Jerusalem, during the time of the monarchy and beyond. These sacrifices were a key component of the worship of the Lord as prescribed in the Torah, and they continued to be practiced until the destruction of the Second Temple in 70 AD.

In the broader context of the Torah, these rituals prefigure the ultimate sacrifice of Jesus Christ, who is understood by Christians to be the fulfillment of the Old Testament sacrificial system, offering the perfect and final atonement for sin (Hebrews 10:1-18).
