Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(16) Be a vow or a voluntary offering.--The vow and the voluntary offering which constitute the second class of peace offerings are both entirely voluntary. The distinction between them, as defined by the canon law, which obtained in the time of Christ, is as follows :--A vow (n?d?r) is an obligation voluntarily imposed upon oneself with the formula, "Behold, I take it upon myself to bring a bullock, &c., for a peace offering." This undertaking is binding upon the person till he fulfils it. Hence, if the bullock in question dies, or is stolen, or becomes disqualified for a sacrifice, he must bring another. A free-will offering (nedabah) simply pledges voluntarily a certain animal for a peace offering, with the formula, " Behold, this animal I devote for a peace offering." Hence, if the animal in question dies, or is stolen, or has otherwise become disqualified for sacrifice, the obligation ceases, since it does not extend beyond the animal thus devoted.It shall be eaten the same day.--As both these votive offerings were an indirect mode of supplication having respect to future favours, and hence were not a spontaneous expression of pious devotion, they were not so sacred as the former. They were, therefore, allowed to be eaten both on the day of presentation and on the following day.Parallel Commentaries ...HebrewIf, however,וְאִם־ (wə·’im-)Conjunctive waw | ConjunctionStrong's 518: Lo!, whether?, if, although, Oh that!, when, notthe sacrificeזֶ֚בַח (ze·ḇaḥ)Noun - masculine singular constructStrong's 2077: A slaughter, the flesh of an animal, a sacrificehe offersקָרְבָּנ֔וֹ (qā·rə·bā·nōw)Noun - masculine singular construct | third person masculine singularStrong's 7133: Something brought near the altar, a sacrificial presentis a vowנֶ֣דֶר ׀ (ne·ḏer)Noun - masculine singularStrong's 5088: A promise, a thing promisedorא֣וֹ (’ōw)ConjunctionStrong's 176: Desire, ifa freewill offering,נְדָבָ֗ה (nə·ḏā·ḇāh)Noun - feminine singularStrong's 5071: Spontaneity, spontaneous, a spontaneous, abundant giftit shall be eatenיֵאָכֵ֑ל (yê·’ā·ḵêl)Verb - Nifal - Imperfect - third person masculine singularStrong's 398: To eaton the dayבְּי֛וֹם (bə·yō·wm)Preposition-b | Noun - masculine singular constructStrong's 3117: A dayhe presentsהַקְרִיב֥וֹ (haq·rî·ḇōw)Verb - Hifil - Infinitive construct | third person masculine singularStrong's 7126: To come near, approachhis sacrifice,זִבְח֖וֹ (ziḇ·ḥōw)Noun - masculine singular construct | third person masculine singularStrong's 2077: A slaughter, the flesh of an animal, a sacrificebut the remainderוְהַנּוֹתָ֥ר (wə·han·nō·w·ṯār)Conjunctive waw, Article | Verb - Nifal - Participle - masculine singularStrong's 3498: To jut over, exceed, to excel, to remain, be left, to leave, cause to abound, preservemay be eatenיֵאָכֵֽל׃ (yê·’ā·ḵêl)Verb - Nifal - Imperfect - third person masculine singularStrong's 398: To eatonמִמֶּ֖נּוּ (mim·men·nū)Preposition | third person masculine singularStrong's 4480: A part of, from, out ofthe next day.וּמִֽמָּחֳרָ֔ת (ū·mim·mā·ḥo·rāṯ)Conjunctive waw, Preposition-m | Noun - feminine singularStrong's 4283: The morrow, tomorrowJump to PreviousEaten Food Freely Freewill Free-Will Freewill-Offering However Morrow Oath Oblation Offered Offereth Offering Offers Presented Remainder Remnant Rest Result Sacrifice Used Voluntary Votive Vow
