The number of burnt offerings the assembly brought
This phrase highlights the collective effort of the assembly, indicating a communal act of worship and repentance. In the context of 2 Chronicles 29, King Hezekiah is leading a religious reform to restore proper worship in the temple. The assembly's participation reflects a unified commitment to returning to the covenantal relationship with God. This communal aspect is reminiscent of other instances in the Old Testament where the people of Israel come together for significant religious observances, such as the dedication of Solomon's Temple (1 Kings 8).

was seventy bulls
The number seventy often symbolizes completeness or perfection in the Bible, as seen in the seventy elders of Israel (Exodus 24:1) and the seventy years of Babylonian captivity (Jeremiah 25:11). Bulls were considered valuable offerings due to their size and significance, often used in major sacrifices (Leviticus 4:3). The offering of seventy bulls signifies a substantial and complete act of atonement and dedication to God.

a hundred rams
Rams were commonly used in sacrificial offerings, symbolizing strength and leadership. The offering of a hundred rams indicates a significant and generous act of worship. In the context of Hezekiah's reforms, this large number underscores the seriousness of the people's repentance and their desire to restore their relationship with God. Rams were also used in the consecration of priests (Exodus 29:15-18), linking this offering to the restoration of proper priestly functions.

and two hundred lambs
Lambs were frequently used in daily sacrifices and during Passover, symbolizing innocence and purity (Exodus 12:5). The offering of two hundred lambs emphasizes the people's desire for purification and renewal. This act can be seen as a foreshadowing of Christ, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world (John 1:29). The large number of lambs offered reflects the abundance of the people's repentance and dedication.

all these were for a burnt offering to the LORD
Burnt offerings were entirely consumed by fire, symbolizing total devotion and surrender to God (Leviticus 1:9). This type of offering was meant to atone for sin and express complete dedication to the LORD. In the context of Hezekiah's reforms, these offerings represent a renewed commitment to the covenant and a desire to restore proper worship. The phrase underscores the purpose of the offerings: to honor and please the LORD, aligning with the broader biblical theme of wholehearted devotion to God (Deuteronomy 6:5).
