Pinchas “Phinehas” Pt 5: Numbers (B’Midbar) 28:1-15
God (Yahveh) recounts the burnt offerings (olah) Israel is to lift up to Him. With the ordination of Joshua (Y’hoshua), it appears that Israel is to be under new leadership. But the burnt offerings are to show that Yahveh Himself is the sovereign, the King, the Goal as well as the Go’el (redeemer). Every day, an offering was to be made, and for Shabbat, and for Rosh Chodesh (head of the month).
We need to remember, that Yahveh, not any President, Pastor, or other person, is our true King, Father, and Redeemer. We must offer up our whole selves to Him. And He, in love, gives us ourselves better than we could ever manage or imagine.
