tenth deal--that is, an omer, the tenth part of an ephah (Exo 16:36).
fourth part of an hin of oil--This element shows it to have been different from such meat offerings as were made by themselves, and not merely accompaniments of other sacrifices. |
Notes on the Bible, by Albert Barnes, [1834] |
The meat-offering is treated in Lev. 2. The drink-offering Exo 29:40; Lev 23:13, hitherto an ordinary accessory to the former, is now prescribed forevery sacrifice. |

A tenth deal - The tenth part of an Ephah, that is, about five pints. An hin contained about five quarts. |
