Leviticus 27:12 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 27:12

And the priest shall value it, whether it be good or bad
Put a price upon it according to its worth, as it shall appear to him:

as thou valuest it, [who art] the priest, so shall it be;
that shall be the price at which it shall be sold, not to the owner or devoter of it, for he must give more, as appears from ( Leviticus 27:13 ) ; but, as Jarchi observes, to all other men who come to purchase it.

Leviticus 27:12 In-Context

10 And cannot be changed: that is to say, neither a better for a worse, nor a worse for a better. And if he shall change it: both that which was changed, and that for which it was changed, shall be consecrated to the Lord.
11 An unclean beast, which cannot be sacrificed to the Lord, if any man shall vow, shall be brought before the priest:
12 Who judging whether it be good or bad, shall set the price.
13 Which, if he that offereth it will give, he shall add above the estimation the fifth part.
14 If a man shall vow his house, and sanctify it to the Lord, the priest shall consider it, whether it be good or bad: and it shall be sold according to the price, which he shall appoint.
