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.

one male goat as a sin offering
John Calvin observes that Israel never came into God's presence without asking for pardon, and the daily goat of this feast fits that pattern. Calvin says this of the day of atonement, and the feast keeps the same order in its joy. Thanks and pardon are sought together.

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.
