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 But be sure you don't eat meat that still has blood in it. The blood is the animal's life. So you must not eat the life along with the meat.
24 You must not eat the blood. Pour it out on the ground like water.
25 Don't eat it. Then things will go well with you and your children after you. You will be doing what is right in the eyes of the Lord.
26 But go to the place the LORD will choose. Take with you the things you have set apart for him. Bring what you have promised to give him.
27 Sacrifice your burnt offerings on the altar of the LORD your God. Offer the meat and the blood there. The blood of your sacrifices must be poured out beside his altar. But you can eat the meat.
