When these days are expired; when you have on every day of these seven offered the sacrifices as appointed, and for the ends mentioned. Upon the eighth day, which begins a new week and it is probable the first of these seven days for sacrifice might be the sabbath, and end on our Friday; however, the first week is spent in solemn consecration of altar and priests; all weeks after are to have, day by day, the usual appointed sacrifices. Burnt-offerings; which were sacrifices expiatory, and for atonement of sin. Upon the altar of burnt-offering, the great brazen altar described in this chapter, Ezekiel 43:13. Peace-offerings; sacrifices of praise and thanksgiving unto God for his goodness. I will accept you; be well-pleased with your persons, pardon your sins, smell a savour of rest in your thanksgiving, and own you with signal tokens of my favour and kindness; I will show my good-will and delight in you.
