Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Leviticus 22:19

Leviticus 22:19. Ye shall offer it at your own will This is better rendered by the Seventy, the Arabic, and other versions, In order to its being accepted ye shall offer a male. And so we render the same word לרצון , leratson, in the next verse. Males were required in burnt-offerings: but females were accepted in peace-offerings and sin-offerings. read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Leviticus 22:21

Leviticus 22:21. To accomplish a vow It was not unusual with them to make such a vow when they undertook a journey, went to sea, were sick, or in any danger. It shall be perfect That sacrifice was accounted perfect which wanted none of its parts, nor had any defect in any of them; so that perfect here is the same as without blemish, Leviticus 22:19. The design of this law was still to remind them that they ought to offer to God the most excellent of every thing in its kind, and to... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Leviticus 22:28

Leviticus 22:28. The cow or ewe, and her young, in one day This Maimonides considers as a precaution of humanity, lest the dam should be brought to the altar while she is yet mourning the loss of her young, slain perhaps before her eyes. And, indeed, there is a degree of cruelty in the very idea of imbruing the hand in the blood of both parent and offspring at the same time. Therefore Jonathan, in his paraphrase, considers this as a symbolical precept, to teach the Israelites to be ... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Leviticus 22:17-33

Animals for sacrifice (22:17-33)All animals offered in sacrifice to God had to be the best available. The only exception concerned the freewill offering, for in that case the state of the animal was an indication of the offerer’s state of heart (17-25).Sacrificial animals had to be at least a week old, to ensure that they were normal and healthy. When people made sacrifices, they were to have sympathy for the innocent animals that lost their lives. For this reason a mother animal was not to be... read more
