Context of Exodus 29:38
36And thou shalt offer every day a bullock as a sin-offering for atonement; and the altar shalt thou cleanse from sin, by making atonement for it, and shalt anoint it, to hallow it. 37Seven days shalt thou make atonement for the altar and hallow it; and the altar shall be most holy: whatever toucheth the altar shall be holy. And this is what thou shalt offer upon the altar — two lambs of the first year, day by day continually. 39The one lamb thou shalt offer in the morning; and the other lamb thou shalt offer between the two evenings. 40And with the one lamb a tenth part of wheaten flour mingled with beaten oil, a fourth part of a hin; and a drink-offering, a fourth part of a hin of wine.
