I. The daily Sacrifice was a lamb: so our Saviour, not daily, but once for all, was offered unto the Father himself, as a Lamb without spot.
II. It was slain in the morning, and in the evening; to show that Christ was a Lamb slain from the morning of the creation, or in the decree of God, from the foundation of the world, though not actually till the evening of the world, or latter days.
III. It was to be offered up with fine flour, beaten oil, and wine; to show, that Christ by his death and oblation becomes not only a redemption for us, but also spiritual food, gladness, and cheering comfort.
IV. Where this sacrifice was offered, the Lord promised and appointed to speak unto Israel, and show himself: signifying, that in Christ, and through his death and blood-shed, the new appointment, or covenant of his grace, and manifestation of his love and favour, is established to his Church, and faithful people.
