Nous désignâmes aussi, par la voie du sort, les prêtres, les Lévites et les gens du peuple chargés d’apporter l’offrande du bois au temple de notre Dieu, dans cette maison de nos ancêtres, année par année, à des époques déterminées, afin d’entretenir le feu sur l’autel de l’Éternel, notre Dieu, comme cela est prescrit dans la Thora.
Tosefta Ta'anit
Why did they see fit to specify the times for the wood offering of the Priests and the people (Taan. 4:5)? [They said,] when the returning exiles did not find wood in the [Temple] chamber, those [families] stood up and were generous with their own wood, and handed it over to the public, and thus the prophets were generous with them, such that even if the [Temple] chamber is filled with wood, and even if [there is sufficient] wood from the public, that those [families may continue to] stand up and be generous with their own wood. There should not be a sacrifice that is offered up, except if [the wood pile] started with their wood, as it is said (Neh. 10:35), "We have cast lots to bring the wood offering, etc.," and it says (Ezra 7:10), "For Ezra had prepared his heart [to expound upon the Torah of God, etc.]."
