Trapp's Commentary on Numbers 29:18
Numbers 29:18 And their meat offering and their drink offerings for the bullocks, for the rams, and for the lambs, [shall be] according to their number, after the manner:Ver. 18. After the manner.] That is, in manner and form aforesaid. The manner is that which makes or mars the action; as a good suit may be marred in the making, so a good duty: there may be malum opus in bona materia. Jehu’ s zeal was rewarded as an act of justice, quoad substantiam operis; and punished as an act of policy, quoad modum agendi, for the perverse end. Yea, David, for failing in a ceremony only, though with an honest heart, suffered a breach instead of a blessing. Idolaters also went on in their own manner as their idol priests prescribed. "The manner of Beersheba liveth"; that is, the form of rites of the worshipping in Beersheba, as the Chaldee paraphraseth.
