Parallels
- Numbers 28:3-6 (structural): Sets out the regular/continual burnt offering and the cultic framework into which the New Moon offering of 28:11 fits (same sacrificial system and terminology).
- Numbers 28:9-10 (verbal): Prescribes the Sabbath offering using the identical roster of animals (two bulls, one ram, seven lambs); close verbal and numerical parallel to the New Moon prescription in 28:11.
- Ezekiel 46:1-6 (thematic): In the prophetic temple scheme Ezekiel gives regulations for sacrifices on the new moon (burnt and peace offerings), reflecting and reworking the cultic practice described in Num 28:11.
- Psalm 81:3 (thematic): Calls the new moon an appointed feast (blowing the trumpet at the new moon), linking Num 28:11’s sacrificial observance to the larger liturgical calendar and festival practice.

Parallels
- Exodus 29:40-41 (verbal): Gives the same formulation for the daily burnt offerings — a lamb with a meal offering of fine flour mingled with oil (specified measure), matching the language and cultic quantities in Num 28:12.
- Numbers 28:5-7 (structural): Earlier in the same chapter the instructions for the continual (daily) lamb offerings and their accompanying meal offerings are laid out; Num 28:12 repeats these cultic specifications for lambs and rams.
- Leviticus 2:1-3 (verbal): Prescribes the meal (grain) offering of fine flour mingled with oil (and frankincense) — the standard ritual formula underlying the flour+oil offering named in Num 28:12.
- Leviticus 23:11-14 (thematic): In the festival/firstfruits legislation offerings include meat/meal offerings of fine flour mixed with oil alongside animal sacrifices, reflecting the same cultic combination of animal plus flour-and-oil offering found in Num 28:12.
Alternative generated candidates
- And their meal offering: three tenths of fine flour mixed with oil for each bullock, and two tenths of fine flour mixed with oil for the ram.

Parallels
- Numbers 28:5 (structural): Earlier in the same chapter prescribing the daily (morning) lamb's accompanying meal-offering as "a tenth deal of an ephah of fine flour mingled with oil" — same ritual pattern repeated here.
- Numbers 15:3 (verbal): Uses the same phrasing for the continual meat offering: "a tenth deal of flour mingled with oil," a close verbal parallel in the regulations for daily offerings.
- Leviticus 2:1-2 (thematic): Gives the general law for the grain (minchah) offering: fine flour mixed with oil (and frankincense), offered by fire as a 'sweet savour' to the LORD — same ritual elements and cultic language.
- Exodus 29:41 (verbal): In the consecration/continual-offering context specifies "a tenth deal of an ephah of fine flour mingled with oil" as part of the regular offering — closely parallels the quantity and composition language of Num 28:13.

- Num.28:7 (verbal): Gives the drink-offering quantities for the continual/daily burnt offerings using the same cultic measurement language (hin, fractions) and similar phrasing within the same regulatory context.
- Exod.29:40-41 (verbal): Prescribes the daily burnt offerings and specifies the drink-offering amount (a fractional hin) for each sacrifice—same priestly vocabulary and measurement conventions.

- Num.29:39-40 (structural): Lists sacrifices and corresponding drink-offering measures for festival days (Feast of Tabernacles/other appointed days), echoing the measurement pattern and ritual structure found in Num.28 for the new moon.
Alternative generated candidates
- And their libations shall be: half a hin of wine for the bullock, a third of a hin for the ram, and a fourth of a hin for the lamb. This is the burnt offering of the new moon, in its month, throughout the months of the year.

Parallels
- Numbers 28:3-8 (verbal): Immediate context in the same chapter setting out the daily (tamid) burnt offering and its accompanying grain and drink offerings — Num.28:15 specifies the sin‑offering goat connected to that continual offering.
- Exodus 29:38-42 (structural): Prescribes the institution of the continual daily offerings (morning and evening) that form the cultic pattern to which Num.28:15 attaches a sin offering.
- Leviticus 4:27-31 (thematic): Gives regulations for a goat (or other goat) as a sin offering for individual/sinful acts; thematically parallels Num.28:15’s designation of a goat for sin alongside the continual sacrifice.
- Hebrews 10:11-12 (allusion): New Testament reflection contrasting the repeated daily/sacrificial system (priests offering continually) with Christ’s single efficacious offering — implicitly presupposes practices like the continual and associated sin‑offerings described in Num.28:15.

- And one male goat for a sin offering to the LORD—this, in addition to the continual burnt offering and its libation.
- And one young male goat for a sin offering to the LORD—beside the continual burnt offering shall this be offered, with its libation.

And three-tenths of fine flour as a grain offering, mixed with oil, for each bull; and two-tenths of fine flour as a grain offering, mixed with oil, for the one ram. And one-tenth of fine flour as a grain offering, mixed with oil for each lamb; this is a burnt offering, a pleasing aroma to the LORD. And their libations shall be half a hin for a bull, a third of a hin for the ram, and a quarter of a hin for a lamb. This is the burnt offering for the new moon, at the beginnings of the months of the year. And one male goat for a sin offering to the LORD, in addition to the continual burnt offering and its libation.
