Context of Numbers 15:11

9Also, you must offer 3 kilograms of flour. Mix this flour with 2 litres of olive oil. Do that if the bull is a burnt offering, or a friendship offering. Do the same if you offer this sacrifice because of a promise. 10Also, you must pour 2 litres of wine on the altar as a drink offering. The smell of this smoke will please the Lord. You must do the same thing for each bull or for each male sheep. And you must do the same thing for each male lamb or for each young goat. 12You must do that for every animal that you offer as a gift to God. 13All the Israelites must do that when they burn sacrifices. The smell of them as they burn will please the Lord.
