Offer the second lamb
The Hebrew word for "offer" is "qarab," which means to bring near or present. This act of offering signifies drawing near to God, a central theme in the sacrificial system. The "second lamb" indicates the continuity and regularity of worship, emphasizing the importance of daily devotion and the perpetual need for atonement and communion with God.

at twilight
The term "twilight" refers to the time between the setting of the sun and the onset of night. In Hebrew, this is "bein ha'arbayim," meaning "between the evenings." This time was significant for the Israelites as it marked the transition from day to night, symbolizing the need for God's presence and protection as they moved into the darkness, both physically and spiritually.

with the same grain offering and drink offering
The grain offering, or "minchah" in Hebrew, was a tribute to God, representing the fruits of human labor and dedication. The drink offering, "nesek," was a libation poured out, symbolizing the pouring out of one's life in service to God. These offerings, accompanying the lamb, highlight the holistic nature of worship, involving both sustenance and spirit, and the dedication of all aspects of life to God.

as in the morning
This phrase underscores the consistency and faithfulness required in worship. Just as the morning sacrifice was a fresh start to the day, the evening sacrifice served as a reminder of God's continual presence and the need for ongoing devotion. It reflects the rhythm of life centered around God, beginning and ending each day with Him.

It is an offering made by fire
The phrase "offering made by fire" translates the Hebrew "isheh," which means a burnt offering. Fire in the sacrificial system symbolizes purification and the presence of God. The burning of the offering represents the complete surrender and transformation of the offering into something pleasing to God, a metaphor for the believer's life being wholly dedicated to Him.

a pleasing aroma to the LORD
The "pleasing aroma" is a recurring motif in the sacrificial language, indicating God's acceptance and satisfaction with the offering. In Hebrew, "reach nichoach" conveys the idea of rest or satisfaction. This phrase assures the Israelites that their offerings, when given with a sincere heart, are acceptable to God, bringing peace and reconciliation between God and His people.
