Leviticus 27:9 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 27:9

And if [it be] a beast whereof men bring an offering to the
Lord
That is, it such a creature is devoted, which is of that kind which are used in sacrifice to the Lord, such as bullocks, sheep, goats, rams, and lambs:

all that [any man] giveth of such unto the Lord shall be holy;
shall be set apart to sacred uses, and not applied to profane or common uses, but either were for the use of the altar or of the priests; or the price of them for the repair of the sanctuary, according as they were devoted.

11 And if it be any unclean beast, of which none are offered as a gift to the Lord, he shall set the beast before the priest.
