⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE

This verse specifies the exact amount of grain offering (about 2 quarts of fine flour) that should be given with each of the seven lambs during this particular sacrifice.

📚 Historical Context

This verse is part of detailed instructions God gave Moses about offerings during the Feast of Trumpets (Rosh Hashanah). The Israelites were required to bring specific amounts of grain offerings along with their animal sacrifices. An 'ephah' was a standard Hebrew measurement for dry goods, roughly equivalent to a bushel, so a 'tenth deal' (one-tenth of an ephah) was about 2 quarts.
