Gill's Notes on the Bible
And ye shall bear no sin by reason of it,.... Shall have no blame laid upon them, or guilt imputed to them, or punishment inflicted on them, on account of their having and enjoying their tithes and gifts:
when ye have heaved from it the best of it; took out the tenth, and that the best, and given it to the priests; or otherwise they would be blameworthy, guilty, and liable to punishment:
neither shall ye pollute the holy things of the children of Israel; the gifts they have given for holy uses, and so are holy; which would be the case if they ate of them, or enjoyed them, without giving the priests the tenth part of them:
lest ye die; for it seems such a neglect was punishable with death.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Neither shall ye pollute ... - Rather, and by not polluting the holy things of the children of Israel, ye shall not die.
