a tenth of an ephah
The ephah is an ancient Hebrew unit of dry measure, roughly equivalent to 22 liters or about 5.8 gallons. The "tenth of an ephah" signifies a precise and intentional offering, reflecting the importance of obedience and exactness in worship. In the Hebrew context, this measurement underscores the meticulous nature of the sacrificial system, which was designed to cultivate a heart of reverence and discipline among the Israelites. The offering of a tenth also symbolizes completeness and sufficiency, pointing to the idea that God requires our best and our all, even in seemingly small measures.

with each of the fourteen lambs
The number fourteen, being a multiple of seven, carries significant symbolic weight in the biblical narrative, often representing completeness and divine perfection. The lambs, central to the sacrificial system, are emblematic of innocence and purity. In the broader scriptural context, lambs prefigure the ultimate sacrifice of Jesus Christ, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world (John 1:29). The repetition of the sacrifice with each lamb emphasizes the continual need for atonement and the perpetual nature of God's provision for His people. Historically, this practice would have been a communal act of worship, fostering unity and shared purpose among the Israelites as they sought to align themselves with God's holy standards.
