Quick answer

The festival offerings were added to the regular morning burnt offering, never displacing the continual daily worship.

Overview

The text again insists that the special feast sacrifices came 'besides' the ongoing daily offering. Israel's celebrations enriched but never interrupted the unbroken rhythm of devotion to God. This continual offering, always before the Lord, points to the perpetual efficacy of Christ's once-offered sacrifice.

Christ at the center

In the wilderness Christ is the water from the rock, the bronze serpent lifted up that the dying might look and live (John 3:14), and the star and scepter that Balaam saw rising out of Jacob.
