Drink-Offering:

consisted of wine (Num 15:5; Hsa 9:4) poured around the altar (Exd 30:9). Joined with meat-offerings (Num 6:15,17; 2Ki 16:13; Joe 1:9,13; 2:14), presented daily (Exd 29:40), on the Sabbath (Num 28:9), and on feast-days (28:14). One-fourth of an hin of wine was required for one lamb, one-third for a ram, and one-half for a bullock (Num 15:5; 28:7,14). "Drink offerings of blood" (Psa 16:4) is used in allusion to the heathen practice of mingling the blood of animals sacrificed with wine or water, and pouring out the mixture in the worship of the gods, and the idea conveyed is that the psalmist would not partake of the abominations of the heathen.
