John Gill (1697–1771) · Exposition of the Old and New Testament · 18th-century historical commentary
“And thou shalt bring for a drink offering half an hin of wine, etc.] The same quantity as of oil, and a little more: [for] an offering made by fire of a sweet savour unto the Lord: this, according to Jarchi, refers only to the meat offering and the oil: for the wine was not a fire offering, not being put upon the fire.”
