Numbers 7 seems a lot like the Twelve Days of Christmas.   ^“His offering was one silver plate weighing a hundred and thirty shekels and one silver sprinkling bowl weighing seventy shekels, both according to the sanctuary shekel, each filled with the finest flour mixed with olive oil as a grain offering; ⁸⁰ one gold dish weighing ten shekels, filled with incense; ⁸¹ one young bull, one ram, and one male lamb a year old for a burnt offering; ⁸² one male goat for a sin offering; ⁸³ and two oxen, five rams, five male goats and five male lambs a year old to be sacrificed as a fellowship offering.” This is repeated twelve times for each of the tribes of Israel.

Repetition is the sincerest form of flattery.  They are not flattering each other with this.  The honor is extended to Jehovah for leading them from Egypt into the land of Canaan.
