민수기 28:16의 미드라쉬

1) (Vayikra 23:5) ("In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, at twilight, it is Pesach to the L–rd.") I might think, when it gets dark; it is, therefore, written "day." If "day," I might think from the second hour (of the day); it is, therefore, written "at twilight." Just as twilight marks the "turning" of the day (towards evening), so, "day" (here) marks the turning of the day, from the sixth hour on. And even though there is no proof for this, it is intimated (in Yirmiyahu 6:4) "Woe unto us for the day is turning, for the shadows of evening have stretched forth."

12) (Vayikra 9:17): "and he smoked it upon the altar aside from the burnt-offering of the morning": What does this come to teach us? If about the daily meal-offering, it is already written (Bamidbar 28:5): "and a tenth of an ephah of flour for the meal-offering." If to teach us about the meal-offering of the burnt-offering, it is already written (Bamidbar 28:16 above): "And he presented the burnt-offering and he offered it according to the ordinance." Why, then, is it written? To teach us that two meal-offerings are sacrificed one after the other.

(Bamidbar 28:16) "And in the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, it is Pesach to the L-rd": Scripture (here) makes it mandatory (and not optional.) (Ibid. 28:17) "for seven days matzoth shall be eaten": I might think that any matzoth (may be eaten [e.g., even those made of rice]). It is, therefore, written (Devarim 16:3) "You shall not eat chametz with it. Seven days shall you eat matzoth with it." Only that which can be matzah (unleavened) or chametz (leavened) (is forbidden in the leavened state). These are the five varieties: wheat, barley, spelt, rye, or oats. This excludes rice, millet, sesame, paragim, which never become matzah or chametz, but only decay.
