“Only thou shalt not eat the blood thereof; thou shalt pour it upon the ground as water.”
King James Version (KJV)
Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary
15:19-23 Here is a direction what to do with the firstlings. We are not now limited as the Israelites were; we make no difference between a first calf, or lamb, and the rest. Let us then look to the gospel meaning of this law, devoting ourselves and the first of our time and strength to God; and using all our comforts and enjoyments to his praise, and under the direction of his law, as we have them all by his gift.
“Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a publick example, was minded to put her away privily.”
