Leviticus 23:39-43 says what the seven days are for: Israel lives in booths to remember the booths of the exodus. Numbers 29 gives the altar's part: the animals, the flour and the oil.

as a sin offering, in addition
Jamieson, Fausset & Brown count fifteen goats and twenty-one kids in the yearly offerings made at public cost. The feast of tabernacles and its eighth day supply eight of them, one a day, and this is the fifth. Each came at the nation's expense.

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.
