present twelve young bulls, two rams
on Numbers 29:17-22
From the second day the grain and drink offerings are given "according to the number prescribed", the rate fixed at Numbers 15:4-12. The chapter abbreviates because the count of animals changes daily while the rate per animal stays the same.

on the fifteenth day--was to be held the feast of booths or tabernacles. The feast was to last seven days, the first and last of which were to be kept as Sabbaths, and a particular offering was prescribed for each day, the details of which are given with a minuteness suited to the infant state of the church.
