Leviticus 22:23

22:23 As for an ox ¹  or a sheep with a limb too long or stunted, ²  you may present it as a freewill offering, but it will not be acceptable for a votive offering. ³ 

Leviticus 22:29

22:29 When you sacrifice a thanksgiving offering to the Lord, you must sacrifice it so that it is acceptable for your benefit. ⁴ 

---

¹ tn Heb “And an ox.”

² tn Heb “and stunted” (see HALOT 1102 s.v. I קלט).

³ sn The freewill offering was voluntary, so the regulations regarding it were more relaxed. Once a vow was made, the paying of it was not voluntary (see B. A. Levine, Leviticus [JPSTC], 151-52, for very helpful remarks on this verse).

⁴ tn Heb “for your acceptance” (see the notes on Lev 1:3-4 and 22:19 above).
