Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(5) If it be from five years old, even unto twenty years.--From the fact that a child of five years is here mentioned it is evident that the vows hero spoken of are not simply those which a man makes with regard to his own person, but which he also makes about others, since a vow involving the payment of a considerable sum of money on the part of a child was of no force. The case, therefore, here contemplated is of a father or mother vowing the male child unto the Lord or of any other person taking upon himself to pay the value of such and such a child to the sanctuary, This is still more manifest from the following verse.The male twenty shekels.--As the services of a boy at the age here specified are of much less value, the parent, or anyone else, who vows him to the sanctuary is to pay 2 11s. 8d.The female ten shekels.--For the girl, whose value is proportionately less, the vower is to pay 1 5s. 10d.; being the same value put on an old woman.
