Commentary
4 notes on this verseThis site's exposition
On the second day Nethanel son of Zuar
on Numbers 7:18-29
Issachar and Zebulun follow, which completes the east standard of Numbers 2:3-9. Nothing changes between the days except the name of the prince and the name of the tribe. The writer could have said that the other eleven did likewise and he declines to.
This site's exposition
The offering he presented was one silver platter
Nethanel of Issachar brings the same platter and bowl that Nahshon brought the day before. Jamieson, Fausset and Brown explain that each tribe was under an equal obligation to God, so each paid an equal tribute. The silver given now reaches four hundred shekels.

But while this was done in one respect, as subjects offering tribute to their king, it was in another respect, a purely religious act. The vessels offered were for a sacrificial use--the animals brought were clean and fit for sacrifice, both symbolically denoting, that while God was to dwell among them as their Sovereign, they were a holy people, who by this offering dedicated themselves to God.
