beside your vows, and your freewill offerings
on Numbers 29:39-40
Verse 39 keeps the set feasts beside your vows, and your freewill offerings, so the fixed calendar sets a floor and leaves voluntary worship standing on top of it. Verse 40 is the only line of narrative in the calendar, which opened at Numbers 28:1 as a single speech and ends here with Moses telling Israel all of it. The men who hear it are the second generation, numbered in chapter 26 after every man of the first had fallen, and the feasts they receive are feasts to be kept in a land none of them has yet entered.
The record, by era
The Puritans and the Awakening4 voices
Large directions had been given in Leviticus concerning the offerings of all sorts that should be brought by particular persons according to the providences of God concerning them and the graces of God in them. Though every Israelite had an interest in these common sacrifices, yet he must not think that these will serve instead of his vows and his free-will offerings.
Commentary On Chapter XXIX 6. Of the month - Belonging to every new moon. Afflict your souls - Yourselves, by fasting and abstinence from all delightful things, and by compunction for your sins, and the judgments of God, either deserved by you or inflicted upon you.
These things ye shall do to the Lord, in your set feasts,....
The intention of divine institutions is well answered when one religious service helps to fit us for another and all for heaven. The blowing of the trumpets was appointed, Lev. xxiii. Here the people are directed what sacrifices to offer on that day, of which there was not then any mention made.

This, of course, is exclusive of the prodigious addition of lambs slain at the passover, which in later times, according to JOSEPHUS, amounted in a single year to the immense number of 255,600.
