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, a sheep, or a goat is born, it must stay seven days with its mother. But from the eighth day on, this animal will be accepted as a sacrifice by fire to the Lord.
28 But you must not kill the animal and its mother on the same day, either an ox or a sheep.
29 "If you want to offer some special offering of thanks to the Lord, you must do it in a way that pleases him.
30 You must eat the whole animal that same day and not leave any of the meat for the next morning. I am the Lord.
31 "Remember my commands and obey them; I am the Lord.
