Context of Numbers 7:13

11The Lord said to Moses: ‘One leader must bring a gift to the altar every day. That is how they will make the altar special for me.’ 12On the first day, Nahshon, the son of Amminadab from the tribe of Judah brought his gift. He brought a plate and a bowl that someone had made from silver. The plate weighed 130 shekels. The bowl weighed 70 shekels. They had weighed the silver by the shekel of God's Holy Tent. Both of those were full of good flour that he had mixed with oil. They were for a grain offering. 14He brought one small dish that someone had made from gold. It weighed ten shekels and it was full of incense. 15He brought one young bull, one male sheep and one male lamb that was less than one year old. Those animals were for a burnt offering.

• Matthew Henry Concise Commentary · v. 10-89Verses 10-89 The princes and great men were most forward in the service of God.
