two lambs of the first year day by day

on Exodus 29:38-41

The daily service of Israel begins here, a lamb in the morning and a lamb at evening with flour, oil and wine, without a break. Numbers 28:3-6 repeats the order and calls it the continual burnt offering ordained in mount Sinai. The evening lamb fixed an hour that the rest of Scripture keeps returning to, at 1 Kings 18:36 where Elijah prays at the time of the evening sacrifice, at Ezra 9:4-5, and at Acts 3:1 where Peter and John go up to the temple at the ninth hour.

proposed

For do not think that the omnipotent God commanded this and consecrated this in the law that incense be brought to him from Arabia. But this is the incense that God seeks to be offered by human beings to him, from which he receives "a pleasing odor," prayers from a pure heart and good conscience in which God truly receives a pleasing warmth.

proposed

Whether there were any other sacrifices to be offered or not, these were sure to be offered, at the public charge, for the benefit and comfort of all Israel, to make atonement for their daily sins, and to be an acknowledgement to God of their daily mercies. This was that which the duty of every day required.
