Contextual Overview
17 Then the Lord said to Moses, 18 "Say to Aaron and to his sons and to all the people of Israel, ‘When any man of the house of Israel or of the strangers in Israel gives his gift for a burnt gift to the Lord, to pay a promise or as a free-will gift 19 to please the Lord, it must be a male that is perfect from the cattle, sheep or goats. 20 Do not give anything that is not perfect, for you will not please the Lord. 21 When a man gives a peace gift to the Lord to keep a special promise or for a free-will gift from the cattle or the flock, it must be perfect to be received. It must have nothing wrong with it. 22 You must not give to the Lord or make a gift by fire on the altar to the Lord any animals that are blind or broken or hurt or have a flowing sore or a skin disease. 23 You may give for a free-will gift a bull or lamb which has some part too long or too short. But it will not be received if it is to pay a promise. 24 Do not give to the Lord any animal with its sex parts hurt or crushed or torn or cut. Do not give such animals on the altar in your land. 25 And do not receive such animals from a man from another land to give as the food of your God. For they are unclean. They are not perfect. They will not be received from you.'" 26 The Lord said to Moses,

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Ye shall not offer unto the Lord that which bruised, or crushed, or broken, or cut,.... The Targum of Jonathan is, whose testicles are pressed and bruised, and whose nerves are corrupted and bruised, and so most Jewish writers interpret it:
neither shall you make [any offering thereof] in your land; any offering of any sort, either burnt offering or peace offering, or any other; or ye shall not do, that is, any such thing as here suggested, not bruise, or crush, or break, or cut the testicles of any creature; so the above writers.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Leviticus 22:24. Bruised, or crushed, or broken, or cut — That is, no bullock or lamb that is injured in any of the above ways, shall be offered unto the Lord.
