Numbers 28:1-2

It should seem by what the Prophet Amos saith (Amos 5:25.) that the Israelites were forgetful of those sacrifices. And Stephen, who reproved the Jewish council when he was brought before them, for this neglect of their fathers, evidently explains the passage of the prophet Amos in this sense. See Acts 7:42. Hence therefore, as all that generation was now dead, during their forty years sojourning in the wilderness, excepting Joshua and Caleb, the LORD saw fit to have these laws for the observance of his ordinances, repeated. The LORD'S people need to be reminded both of their duties and their privileges. But there seems to have been another reason also for the repetition of these statutes; and that is, that as the possession of the promised land was to be by conquest, while the people were engaged in war with men, they were never to forget making and preserving peace with GOD. Doth not this teach us somewhat very sweet and interesting concerning our JESUS, and our peace with Him through the blood of his cross, in the very moment we are at war with all the enemies of our salvation? Nay it is said, in the book of the Psalms, that Canaan itself, in the peaceable possession of it, was given to the people that they might observe his statutes and keep his laws. Psalms 105:45.
