Deuteronomy 12:26 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 12:26

Only thy holy things which thou hast
Which the Targums of Onkelos and Jonathan interpret of the tithe of their holy things, and Aben Ezra of their burnt offerings and peace offerings; they seem to include all in ( Deuteronomy 12:17 )

and thy vows thou shalt take, and go unto the place which the Lord
shall choose;
so often referred to, but not named; see ( Deuteronomy 12:5 ) .

Deuteronomy 12:26 In-Context

24 You shall not eat it; you shall pour it out upon the earth like water.
25 You shall not eat it; that all may go well with you and with your children after you, when you do what is right in the sight of the LORD.
26 But the holy things which are due from you, and your votive offerings, you shall take, and you shall go to the place which the LORD will choose,
27 and offer your burnt offerings, the flesh and the blood, on the altar of the LORD your God; the blood of your sacrifices shall be poured out on the altar of the LORD your God, but the flesh you may eat.
28 Be careful to heed all these words which I command you, that it may go well with you and with your children after you for ever, when you do what is good and right in the sight of the LORD your God.
