Deuteronomy 12:25 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 12:25

Thou shall not eat it, that it may be well with thee, and with
thy children after thee
That they and their posterity might be spared, and continue long, and enjoy much prosperity; for those that eat blood, contrary to this command of God, it is threatened that he would set his face against them, and they should be cut off, ( Leviticus 7:27 ) ( 17:10 ) ,

when thou shall do that which is right in the sight of the Lord;
not only observe this command, but all others.

Deuteronomy 12:25 In-Context

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.
27 There you will offer your burnt offerings, the meat and the blood, on the altar of ADONAI your God. The blood of your sacrifices is to be poured out on the altar of ADONAI your God, and you will eat the meat.
