Exegesis
The construct veniskeihem {וְנִסְכֵּיהֶם | wə-nîs-ke-hem} ‘and their drink offerings’ and uzevakhim larov {וּזְבָחִים לָרֹב | ū-zə-ḥîm lā-rōḇ} ‘and sacrifices in abundance’ further intensify the generosity, culminating in le-kol-Yisrael {לְכָל־יִשְׂרָאֵל | lə-kōl-Yiś-rā-’ēl} ‘for all Israel’, which underscores communal participation.
In context — 1 Chronicles 29:21
And they offered sacrifices to the LORD , and on the next day offered burnt offerings to the LORD: a thousand bulls, a thousand rams, a thousand male lambs—together with their drink offerings and abundant sacrifices for all Israel.
