Leviticus 19:5 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 19:5

And if ye offer a sacrifice of peace offerings unto the Lord,
&c.] Which were of three sorts, a thanksgiving, a vow, and a voluntary offering, ( Leviticus 7:11 Leviticus 7:12 Leviticus 7:16 ) ; the latter seems to be here meant, as appears by what follows:

ye shall offer it at your own will;
a voluntary freewill offering, of their own accord, and not by force, as Aben Ezra; and in such offerings they were left to their liberty to offer what they pleased, it might be of the flock, or of the herd, a male or a female, ( Leviticus 3:1 Leviticus 3:6 ) . The Targum of Jonathan is

``for your acceptation;''

that is, that should be offered, and in such a manner as to be accepted of you with God; which sense is countenanced by ( Leviticus 19:7 ) ; and becomes acceptable, when what follows about eating them is attended to.

Leviticus 19:5 In-Context

3 Want ieder zal zijn moeder en zijn vader vrezen, en Mijn sabbatten houden; Ik ben de HEERE, uw God!
4 Gij zult u tot de afgoden niet keren, en u geen gegoten goden maken; Ik ben de HEERE, uw God!
5 En wanneer gij een dankoffer den HEERE offeren zult, naar uw welgevallen zult gij dat offeren.
6 Op den dag van uw offeren, en des anderen daags, zal het gegeten worden; maar wat tot op den derden dag overblijft zal met vuur verbrand worden.
7 En zo het op den derden dag enigzins gegeten wordt, het is een afgrijselijk ding, het zal niet aangenaam zijn.
