Holiness in Worship
Approach worship with reverence and a heart that seeks to honor God's holiness, recognizing the significance of offering our best to Him.1. The LORD (YHWH)
The chapter begins with the LORD speaking to Moses, giving instructions for the offerings. The LORD is the covenant God of Israel, who commands worship and obedience.

2. Moses
As the leader of the Israelites and the mediator between God and the people, Moses receives the instructions from the LORD to convey to the Israelites.

3. The Israelites
The people of Israel are the recipients of the laws and instructions regarding the offerings. They are expected to follow these commands as part of their covenant relationship with God.

4. The Priests
Although not explicitly named in this chapter, the priests are responsible for carrying out the sacrificial duties. They are from the tribe of Levi and serve as mediators between God and the people, performing the rituals as prescribed.

In the context of Numbers 28, the focus is on the community's collective responsibility to maintain their relationship with God through regular offerings. The Hebrew roots emphasize the covenantal and communal aspects of worship, with the priests playing a crucial role in facilitating this process.Numbers 28 in the Berean Standard Bible primarily focuses on the offerings and sacrifices that the Israelites were commanded to present to God. It does not specifically mention geographical places within the chapter. Instead, it details the types of offerings and the times they are to be presented. Therefore, there are no specific places listed in Numbers 28 to create a numbered list from.

If you are interested in a broader context or other chapters that might mention specific places, please let me know, and I can provide information on those.1. Daily Offerings
The LORD commands Moses to instruct the Israelites about the daily offerings. Each day, two unblemished year-old male lambs are to be offered as a regular burnt offering. One lamb is to be offered in the morning and the other at twilight. This daily sacrifice is a continual reminder of the Israelites' covenant relationship with God. The Hebrew word for "burnt offering" is עֹלָה (olah), which signifies an offering that is completely consumed by fire, symbolizing total dedication to God.

2. Sabbath Offerings
On the Sabbath day, the offering is to be two unblemished year-old male lambs, along with a grain offering and a drink offering. This is in addition to the regular daily burnt offering. The Sabbath offerings emphasize the holiness of the Sabbath and the need for rest and worship, as commanded in the Ten Commandments.

3. Monthly Offerings
At the beginning of each month, additional offerings are to be made: two young bulls, one ram, and seven unblemished year-old male lambs, along with their respective grain and drink offerings. A male goat is also offered as a sin offering. The Hebrew term for "month" is חֹדֶשׁ (chodesh), which is related to the new moon, marking the start of a new month in the Hebrew calendar.

4. Passover Offerings
On the fourteenth day of the first month, the Passover is to be observed. The Passover lamb is a significant symbol of deliverance and redemption, commemorating the Israelites' exodus from Egypt. The Hebrew word פֶּסַח (pesach) means "to pass over," referring to the LORD passing over the houses of the Israelites during the final plague in Egypt.

5. Feast of Unleavened Bread Offerings
For seven days following Passover, the Feast of Unleavened Bread is observed. Each day, offerings are made: two young bulls, one ram, and seven unblemished year-old male lambs, along with their grain and drink offerings. A male goat is offered as a sin offering. This feast emphasizes the purity and holiness required of God's people, as leaven is a symbol of sin.

Fifty days after the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the Feast of Weeks is celebrated. The offerings include two young bulls, one ram, and seven unblemished year-old male lambs, along with their grain and drink offerings. A male goat is offered as a sin offering. This feast, also known as Pentecost, marks the giving of the Law at Sinai and the firstfruits of the wheat harvest.Hebrews 10:1-10
