Scofield's Bible Commentary

Genesis 35:14

drink offering

The first mention of the drink-offering. It is not mentioned among the Levitical offerings of Leviticus 1-7, though included in the instructions for sacrifice in the land (Numbers 15:5). It was always "poured out," never drunk, and may be considered a type of Christ in the sense of; (Psalms 22:14); (Isaiah 53:12).
