Leviticus 22:23

Context
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 

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).
