Seven days ye shall offer an offering made, by fire unto the Lord,.... A burnt offering; what this was, and how many were offered on each day, see at large in Numbers 29:13;

on the eighth day shall be an holy convocation unto you; as on the first day; Leviticus 23:35:

and ye shall offer an offering made by fire unto the Lord; which was different from that on all the other days, being one bullock only, c.

Numbers 29:35

it [is] a solemn assembly; of all the people, when they were gathered together before the Lord. Some render the word used a "restraint" or "detention", and interpret it of restraining or detaining them from servile work, as in the next clause; so Aben Ezra and Gersom; but this sense seems to make that clause unnecessary and is never used elsewhere where that is:

ye shall do no servile work [therein]; as on the first day;

Leviticus 23:35.
