the offering: This oblation, which the Jews call a mincha: of initiation, seems to have been required of the high priest alone "on the day in which he was anointed," and from that time, every morning and evening, as long as he continued in office, and then in like manner of his successor; for, by "the sons of Aaron," may be understood his descendants and successors in the high priesthood, in their generations. Exodus 29:2; Numbers 18:26-32; Hebrews 5:1, Hebrews 7:27, Hebrews 8:3-4

in the day: The word beyom: signifies not only in the day, but from that day forward; for it was a daily oblation, and for them and their successors, a statue forever. Leviticus 6:22

the tenth: Leviticus 5:1; Exodus 16:36

a meat offering: Leviticus 2:1-16; Exodus 29:35-42; Numbers 28:3, Numbers 28:10
