Leviticus 22:29 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 22:29

And when ye will offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving unto the
Lord
Which was a sort of peace offering, distinct from freewill offerings and vows before spoken of: offer [it] at your own will;
just what they pleased, whether a bullock, a sheep, or a goat, and whether a male or female; these were left to their own option, or for acceptation to you, as the Targum of Jonathan, and so Jarchi; that is, it was right in them, and they ought to be careful to offer it in such manner, that it might be acceptable to God, by observing the rules given concerning it, particularly what follows.

Leviticus 22:29 In-Context

27 When an ox or a sheep or a goat is born, it shall remain seven days with its mother, and from the eighth day on it shall be acceptable as the Lord's offering by fire.
28 But you shall not slaughter, from the herd or the flock, an animal with its young on the same day.
29 When you sacrifice a thanksgiving offering to the Lord, you shall sacrifice it so that it may be acceptable in your behalf.
30 It shall be eaten on the same day; you shall not leave any of it until morning: I am the Lord.
31 Thus you shall keep my commandments and observe them: I am the Lord.
