Thou mayest not sacrifice the passover within any of thy gates,
&c.] Or cities, as the Targum of Jonathan, so called because they usually had gates to them, in which public affairs were transacted; but in none of these, only in the city of Jerusalem, the place the Lord chose, might they kill the passover and eat it, and other passover offerings:
which the Lord thy God giveth thee;
in the land of Canaan, and which land was given them of God.
