Levítico 17:2 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 17:2

Speak unto Aaron, and unto his sons
Who were now constituted priests, the business of whose office it was to offer the sacrifices of the people, ordinary and extraordinary: and to all the children of Israel;
who were all under obligation to sacrifices at certain times; under whom may be comprehended the Levites, who were not priests, and the strangers that sojourned in Israel, for these are concerned in the following law: and say unto them;
which is spoken to Moses, who was to say what follows to Aaron, and by him to his sons, and by his sons to the people of Israel, and by them to the strangers: this [is] the thing which the Lord hath commanded;
ordered to be observed as his will and pleasure by everyone of them: saying;
namely, what follows.

Levítico 17:2 In-Context

1 O SENHOR disse a Moisés:

2 “Diga a Arão e seus filhos e a todos os israelitas o que o SENHOR ordenou:

3 Qualquer israelita que sacrificar um boi, um cordeiro ou um cabrito dentro ou fora do acampamento,

4 e não o trouxer à entrada da Tenda do Encontro para apresentá-lo como oferta ao SENHOR, diante do tabernáculo do SENHOR, será considerado culpado de sangue; derramou sangue e será eliminado do meio do seu povo.

5 Os sacrifícios, que os israelitas agora fazem em campo aberto, passarão a trazer ao SENHOR, entregando-os ao sacerdote, para oferecê-los ao SENHOR, à entrada da Tenda do Encontro, e os sacrificarão como ofertas de comunhão.
