For example, Exodus 18:12a is translated in the New American Bible as Then Jethro, the father-in-law of Moses, brought a holocaust and other sacrifices to God, while it is translated in the New International Version as Then Jethro, Moses' father-in-law, brought a burnt offering and other sacrifices to God.

God calls to Moses from the Tabernacle and tells him the laws of the sacrifices (korbanot). A burned offering ('olah) can be a bull, ram, male goat, turtle dove or pigeon, which the priest burns completely on wood on the altar.

Korban Tamid – the biblical command to offer a daily morning and evening sacrifice (Numbers 28:1–8, Leviticus 1:11) On Shabbat and Rosh Chodesh, Biblical verses regarding the mussaf offerings for those days (Numbers 28:9–10 and Numbers 28:11–15 respectively) are recited after the Korban Tamid.
