and for the sacrifice of peace offerings
The term "peace offerings" comes from the Hebrew word "שְׁלָמִים" (shelamim), which is derived from "שָׁלוֹם" (shalom), meaning peace, completeness, or welfare. In the context of ancient Israel, peace offerings were a way to express gratitude and fellowship with God. They symbolized reconciliation and the restoration of harmony between the offerer and the Divine. This offering was a voluntary act, reflecting the worshiper's desire to maintain a peaceful relationship with God and the community.

two oxen
Oxen were considered valuable assets in ancient agrarian societies, used for plowing fields and as a source of meat. Offering two oxen signified a significant sacrifice, demonstrating the offerer's devotion and willingness to give from their wealth. The use of oxen in sacrifices also points to their role as symbols of strength and service, representing the offerer's dedication to serving God with their resources.

five rams
Rams, male sheep, were often used in sacrificial offerings due to their value and significance. The number five in biblical numerology is sometimes associated with grace. Offering five rams could symbolize the abundance of God's grace and the offerer's acknowledgment of this grace in their life. Rams also represent leadership and authority, reflecting the offerer's submission to God's sovereignty.

five male goats
Goats were common sacrificial animals in Israelite worship. The male goat, or "שָׂעִיר" (sa'ir), was often used in sin offerings, symbolizing the removal of sin and impurity. In this context, the offering of five male goats as part of the peace offerings could signify the offerer's desire for purification and a clean relationship with God. The number five again emphasizes the grace and mercy of God in forgiving sins.

and five male lambs a year old
Lambs, especially those a year old, were considered pure and without blemish, making them suitable for offerings. The lamb is a powerful symbol of innocence and sacrifice, prefiguring the ultimate sacrifice of Jesus Christ, the Lamb of God. Offering five male lambs highlights the offerer's recognition of God's provision and the purity required in worship. The repetition of the number five underscores the theme of grace and divine favor.

This was the offering of Eliasaph son of Deuel
Eliasaph, meaning "God has added," was a leader of the tribe of Gad. His offering represents not only his personal devotion but also the collective worship and commitment of his tribe. The mention of his father, Deuel, meaning "knowledge of God," suggests a legacy of faith and understanding passed down through generations. This highlights the importance of family and community in maintaining a covenant relationship with God.
