Here "all" is a generalization meaning very many Israelites. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-hyperbole]])

# sacrificing sheep and oxen that could not be counted
|
|
|
|
This is an exaggeration that emphasizes the great number of animals that were sacrificed. This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "sacrificing more sheep and oxen than anyone could count" or "sacrificing very many sheep and oxen" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-hyperbole]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-activepassive]])
