Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Numbers 29:13

Thirteen young bullocks; more sacrifices than at any other feast, partly because this feast was in the close of the year, when it was meet to supply the defects of the year past, and when they had gathered in all their fruits, Deuteronomy 16:13,Deuteronomy 16:15 and therefore ought to make the larger returns and acknowledgment to God; partly because it was God’s pleasure so to order it, for reasons known to himself, in whose will we ought to acquiesce.

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Numbers 29:1-40

CRITICAL AND EXPLANATORY NOTESIn this chapter we have directions concerning three great annual religious occasions, the Feast of Trumpets, the Day of Atonement, and the Feast of Tabernacles. Each of these had been previously instituted; and the chief reason of their mention here is for the enumeration of the sacrifices to be offered upon each occasion.

The Biblical Illustrator - Numbers 29:12-40

Numbers 29:12-40The fifteenth day of the seventh month. The Feast of TabernaclesIt is called the Feast of Tabernacles because during the days of this feast they were to live in tents or tabernacles, it being a memorial of God’s preserving of them in the wilderness where was no house for them in which to rest.
