Deuteronomy 12:24 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 12:24

Thou shalt not eat it
Neither with the flesh, nor separately:

thou shall pour it upon the earth as water;
as the blood of sacrifices was poured upon the altar, the blood of common flesh was to be poured upon the earth, signifying it was not to be used, and no account to be made of it; (See Gill on Deuteronomy 12:16)

Deuteronomy 12:24 In-Context

22 Eat it as you would gazelle or deer; the unclean and clean alike may eat it.

23 Just take care not to eat the blood, for the blood is the life, and you are not to eat the life with the meat.

24 Don't eat it, but pour it out on the ground like water.

25 Do not eat it, so that things will go well with you and with your children after you, as you do what ADONAI sees as right.

26 Only the things set aside for God which you have, and the vows you have vowed to make, you must take and go to the place which ADONAI will choose.
