Numbers 18:17 - Forerunner Commentary

Numbers 18:17

15 “Everything that first opens ^athe womb of all flesh, which they bring to the Lord, whether man or beast, shall be yours; nevertheless the firstborn of man you shall surely redeem, and ^bthe firstborn of unclean animals you shall redeem.

16 And those redeemed of the devoted things you shall redeem when one month old, ^aaccording to your valuation, for five shekels of silver, according to the shekel of the sanctuary, which is ^btwenty gerahs.

17 ^aBut the firstborn of a cow, the firstborn of a sheep, or the firstborn of a goat you shall not redeem; they are holy. ^bYou shall sprinkle their blood on the altar, and burn their fat as an offering made by fire for a sweet aroma to the Lord.

18 And their flesh shall be yours, just as the ^awave breast and the right thigh are yours.

19 “All the heave offerings of the holy things, which the children of Israel offer to the Lord, I have given to you and your sons and daughters with you as an ordinance forever; ^ait is a covenant of salt forever before the Lord with you and your descendants with you.”
