And he shall lay his hand upon the head of his offering,.... The Targum of Jonathan adds here, as before,
"his right hand with strength:''
and kill it before the tabernacle of the congregation; in the court, in any part of it; for, as Gersom says, all places were right for this; the man that brought it killed it, or the butcher, as the Targum of Jonathan says here also as on Leviticus 3:2:
and Aaron's sons shall sprinkle the blood thereof round about upon the altar; upon the four horns of it, Leviticus 3:2- :.
