19but ye shall offer an offering made by fire, a burnt-offering unto Jehovah: two young bullocks, and one ram, and seven he-lambs a year old; they shall be unto you without blemish;
20and their meal-offering, fine flour mingled with oil: three tenth parts shall ye offer for a bullock, and two tenth parts for the ram;
21a tenth part shalt thou offer for every lamb of the seven lambs;
22and one he-goat for a sin-offering, to make atonement for you.
23Ye shall offer these besides the burnt-offering of the morning, which is for a continual burnt-offering.
24After this manner ye shall offer daily, for seven days, the food of the offering made by fire, of a sweet savor unto Jehovah: it shall be offered besides the continual burnt-offering, and the drink-offering thereof.
25And on the seventh day ye shall have a holy convocation: ye shall do no servile work.

John Gill's Exposition
John Gill (1697–1771) · Exposition of the Old and New Testament · 18th-century historical commentary
“And one goat [for] a sin offering, to make atonement for you.] For notwithstanding all their services and sacrifices, and though this day was an holy convocation, yet there was need of a sin offering to expiate their guilt, typical of Christ, who takes away the sins of our holy things as well as all other sins: this sin offering also was of that sort which were eaten; for Maimonides says f438, the goat of the sin offering was eaten on the second day of the passover, which was the sixteenth of Nisan.”

“The Passover offering was the same as that of the New moon, and was repeated on each of the seven days of the festival, thus marking the importance and the solemnity of the occasion. The details of the offering had not been previously prescribed. return to 'Top of Page'”
