Тамид предлагается с девятью (жрецами) [отсчет времени со времени наложения конечностей], (иногда) с девятью, с десятью, с одиннадцатью, с двенадцатью —никогда меньше (чем девять), никогда больше (чем двенадцать). Как так? Само по себе [каждый день], с девятью: [шесть для конечностей и внутренностей, как упомянуто выше (2: 3), один для муки, один для чавитина, один для вина]; на празднике (Суккот) [когда требовалось два возлияния, одно из вина и одно из воды], в руке одного (священника), фляга с водой—делать десять; день (тамид) с одиннадцати: сам по себе с девятью; и два (священники) с двумя бревнами в руках [чтобы добавить к древесине деревянной кучи, а именно. (Левит 1: 7): «И они устроят дрова на огне». Если это не относится к утреннему тамиду, о котором уже написано (там же 6: 5): «И священник будет разжигать на нем дрова каждое утро», то следует понимать, что это относится к полуденному тамиду, добавляются два бревна .]; в субботу с двенадцатью, а само с девятью; два с двумя кадилками ладана, сопровождающих хлеб; и в субботу посреди праздника (Суккот) в руке одного - фляга с водой.
