Commentary on Numbers 28:2
God commands Israel to observe 'my offering, and my bread for my sacrifices made by fire' at their appointed seasons. The Hebrew 'qorban' (offering) and 'lechem' (bread) emphasize that sacrifices are God's food - anthropomorphic language showing God delights in His people's worship, not that He needs sustenance. The phrase 'sweet savour' (reiach nichoach) appears throughout, meaning a soothing aroma pleasing to God. These offerings foreshadow Christ, the true Bread from heaven (John 6:35) who offered Himself as a fragrant offering to God (Eph 5:2).
