Halakhah do Liczb 28:2

And already you know that the soul is sustained in the body and its activities are manifest only if the body eats. And from this understand the matter of the sacrifices, which are the hidden things of the Torah, about which it is written: ‘to My [offering by] fire, my pleasing odor’ [Nu 28:2]. The power of the higher soul increases and is added to by the fire offerings in the eating of the sacrifices, and so our rabbis said;¹¹Song of Songs Zuta, though in R. Bahya’s own paraphrased version [as per Chavel’s note]. ‘My sacrifice, My bread, to My [offering by] fire.’ It could say just ‘My bread,’ but Scripture adds, ‘to My [offering by] fire;’ to My fire you give it. This is because of the connection of the soul to its attributes. The powers of the soul are connected to the powers of the body. And understand the verse that ‘the favorite of the Strong One’ [Ps. 103:1, i.e., David] mentions: “My soul bless YHWH, all that is inside me [bless] His holy name.’ The invisible unites with the invisible, the visible with the visible. And understand this, that the powers of the soul are not visible and are actualized only through the body. If so, the body is a great necessity for the public revelation of the high degree of the soul and its perfection.

The commandment of the regular [sacrifices] daily: That Israel was commanded that they should sacrifice - through the servants of God, may He be blessed, who are the priests - two unblemished one-year old lambs as a burnt-offering daily, one in the morning and the second in the afternoon, as it is stated (Numbers 28:2), "Command the Children of Israel and say to them, 'My sacrifice, My bread, etc. two per day, a regular burnt-offering.'" And nonetheless, the main warning is to the court - meaning to say the sages, the decisors of the Torah in Israel, as the work of the community is incumbent upon them. And it is like they, may their memory be blessed said (Sifrei Bamidbar 142:3), "'And say to them' is a warning to the court."
