And the drink offering thereof shall be the fourth part of an hin for the one lamb: in the holy place shalt thou cause the strong wine to be poured unto the LORD for a drink offering.
And the drink offering thereof. The drink offerings were usually united with meat offerings, and both considered as an addition to the thank offerings made by fire, but not to sin offerings or trespass offerings (cf. Numbers 15:5; Leviticus 14:10). The libations of pagan antiquity were borrowed from this usage among God's people (see Winer, 'Biblical Realworterbuch).
