Leviticus 22:29 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 22:29

And when ye will offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving unto the
Lord
Which was a sort of peace offering, distinct from freewill offerings and vows before spoken of: offer [it] at your own will;
just what they pleased, whether a bullock, a sheep, or a goat, and whether a male or female; these were left to their own option, or for acceptation to you, as the Targum of Jonathan, and so Jarchi; that is, it was right in them, and they ought to be careful to offer it in such manner, that it might be acceptable to God, by observing the rules given concerning it, particularly what follows.

Leviticus 22:29 In-Context

27 When an ox or sheep or goat is born, it must remain with its mother for seven days. From the eighth day on it will be acceptable as an offering, a food gift for the LORD.
28 But you will not slaughter an ox or sheep and its offspring on the same day.
29 When you sacrifice a communal sacrifice of thanksgiving for the LORD, you must sacrifice it so that it will be acceptable on your behalf.
30 It must be eaten on the same day; you must not leave any of it until morning; I am the LORD.
31 You must keep my commands and do them; I am the LORD.
