Exodus 24:5
Verse 5. He sent young men] Stout, able, reputable young men, chosen out of the different tribes, for the purpose of killing, flaying, and offering the oxen mentioned here. Burnt-offerings] They generally consisted of sheep and goats, Le 1:10. These were wholly consumed by fire. Peace-offerings] Bullocks or goats; see Heb 9:19. The blood of these was poured out before the Lord, and then the priests and people might feast on the flesh.
