Ibn Ezra on Numbers 7:53/אבן עזרא על במדבר ז׳:נ״ג

אבקר שנים. גם הם פרים זכרים וטעמו מין הבקר והעד וכל בקר זבח השלמים עשרים וארבעה פרים:
1TWO OXEN. These were also male bullocks.34 The meaning of bakar (oxen) is, from the kind of cattle.35 (two oxen) literally means two of the kind of cattle, the reference being to two bulls. And all the oxen for the sacrifice of peace-offerings twenty and four bullocks (v. 88) is proof of this.36 refers to bullocks.
