Vayikra 27:12

12 And the kohen shall value it, whether it be tov or rah; as thou valuest it, who art the kohen, so shall it be.

Vayikra 27:12 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 27:12

And the priest shall value it, whether it be good or bad
Put a price upon it according to its worth, as it shall appear to him:

as thou valuest it, [who art] the priest, so shall it be;
that shall be the price at which it shall be sold, not to the owner or devoter of it, for he must give more, as appears from ( Leviticus 27:13 ) ; but, as Jarchi observes, to all other men who come to purchase it.

Vayikra 27:12 In-Context

10 He shall not exchange it, nor substitute it, a tov for a rah, or rah for tov: and if he shall at all substitute behemah for behemah, then it and the substitute thereof shall be kodesh.
11 And if it be any behemah temeiah, of which they do not offer a korban unto Hashem, then he shall present the behemah before the kohen;
12 And the kohen shall value it, whether it be tov or rah; as thou valuest it, who art the kohen, so shall it be.
13 But if he will at all redeem it, then he shall add chamishto (a fifth part thereof) unto thy evaluation.
14 And when a man shall set apart as kodesh his bais to be kodesh unto Hashem, then the kohen shall evaluate it, whether it be tov or rah; as the kohen shall set the value of it, so shall it remain.
