John Gill, on Neh 10:32

John Gill · 1697–1771
Neh 10:32 · Douay-Rheims
“And we made ordinances for ourselves, to give the third part of a side every year for the work of the house of our God,”
On this verse:
“For the shewbread,.... To defray the expenses of the twelve loaves, which every week were set on the table of shewbread, Lev 24:5, and for the continual meat offering, and for the continual burnt offering; for the daily sacrifice, morning and evening, which always had a meat offering along with it, Exo 29:38, of the sabbaths, and of the new moons; on which were additional sacrifices, Num 28:9, and for the set feasts; of passover, pentecost, and tabernacles; in which also were offered other sacrifices, besides the daily one, Num 28:16, and for the holy things: which were both by way of thanksgiving to God, and that they might feast and rejoice together: and for the sin offerings, to make an atonement for Israel; for the whole body of the people, and so were made at the public expense: and for all the work of the house of our God; whatever else was necessary that is not mentioned.”
