and for the peace offering
The Hebrew term for "peace offering" is "שֶׁלֶם" (shelem), which is derived from the root "שָׁלַם" (shalom), meaning peace, completeness, or welfare. The peace offering was a voluntary sacrifice expressing thanksgiving and fellowship with God. It symbolized reconciliation and communion, reflecting the believer's restored relationship with the Lord. In the context of Numbers, it underscores the communal aspect of worship and the importance of maintaining harmony within the Israelite community.

two oxen
Oxen were valuable animals in ancient Israel, used for plowing and as beasts of burden. Offering two oxen signified a significant sacrifice, indicating the offerer's devotion and gratitude. The oxen's strength and utility symbolize the believer's dedication to serving God with their resources and abilities.

five rams
Rams were often used in sacrificial offerings, symbolizing leadership and strength. The number five in biblical numerology can represent grace or God's goodness. Offering five rams could signify the abundance of God's grace and the offerer's acknowledgment of His provision and leadership in their lives.

five male goats
Goats were commonly used in sin offerings, representing the removal of sin and impurity. The inclusion of five male goats in the peace offering highlights the comprehensive nature of the sacrifice, addressing both thanksgiving and atonement. It reflects the believer's desire for purity and holiness in their relationship with God.

and five male lambs a year old
Lambs, especially those a year old, were considered pure and without blemish, making them suitable for sacrifice. The lamb is a symbol of innocence and sacrifice, pointing forward to Christ, the Lamb of God. Offering five male lambs emphasizes the completeness and perfection of the sacrifice, foreshadowing the ultimate sacrifice of Jesus for the sins of humanity.

This was the offering of Elizur son of Shedeur
Elizur, meaning "God is my rock," was the leader of the tribe of Reuben. His offering represents the collective worship and dedication of his tribe. The mention of his lineage, "son of Shedeur," underscores the importance of heritage and identity in the Israelite community. It serves as a reminder of the continuity of faith and the responsibility of each generation to uphold and pass on their devotion to God.
