Exegesis
Le-vad {לְבַ֨ד | levaḏ} ‘besides/in addition to’ indicates the offerings are in addition to other sacrifices, introducing a cumulative sequence of parallel prepositional phrases—min-nidreikhem {מִנִּדְרֵיכֶם | minnidrêḵem} ‘from your vows’, ve-nidvoteikhem {וְנִדְבֹתֵיכֶם | wə-nidbôtêḵem} ‘and your freewill offerings’, le-oloteikhem {לְעֹלֹֽתֵיכֶם֙ | ləʿolôtêḵem} ‘for your burnt offerings’, u-leminchoteikhem {וּלְמִנְחֹ֣תֵיכֶם | uləminḥôtêḵem} ‘and for your grain offerings’, u-leniskeikhem {וּלְנִסְכֵּיכֶ֖ם | uləniskēḵem} ‘and for your drink offerings’, and u-leshalmeikhem {וּלְשַׁלְמֵיכֶֽם | uləšalmêḵem} ‘and for your peace offerings’. This cumulative structure, characteristic of Hebrew narrative lists, emphasizes the full range of liturgical duties.
In context — Numbers 29:39
These offerings you shall bring to the LORD at your appointed times ; they are separate from your vow offerings and your freewill gifts, whether burnt offerings, grain offerings, drink offerings, or peace offerings.
