Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

a sacrifice: Leviticus 3:1-17, Leviticus 7:16, Leviticus 22:21, Exodus 24:5, 2 Chronicles 31:2, Ezekiel 45:15-17, Ezekiel 46:2, Ezekiel 46:12, Ephesians 2:13, Ephesians 2:14

ye shall: Leviticus 1:3, Leviticus 22:19, Leviticus 22:23, Leviticus 22:29

your own will: The Hebrews had several kinds of offerings, which they called corban. Some were free-will offerings, and others were of obligation. The first fruits, the tenths, the sin-offerings, were of obligation; the peace-offerings, vows, offerings of oil, wine, bread, and other things which were made to the temple, or to the ministers of the Lord, were offerings of devotion; these constituted the greater part. They indeed were a shadow of good things to come, which we enjoy in full fruition through THE ONE great SACRIFICE, even Jesus Christ. Aaron must lay his robes away

His mitre and his vest,

When God himself comes down to be

The offering and the priest. "

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And if ye offer a sacrifice of peace offerings unto the Lord,.... Which were of three sorts, a thanksgiving, a vow, and a voluntary offering, Leviticus 7:11; the latter seems to be here meant, as appears by what follows:

ye shall offer it at your own will; a voluntary freewill offering, of their own accord, and not by force, as Aben Ezra; and in such offerings they were left to their liberty to offer what they pleased, it might be of the flock, or of the herd, a male or a female, Leviticus 3:1. The Targum of Jonathan is

"for your acceptation;''

that is, that should be offered, and in such a manner as to be accepted of you with God; which sense is countenanced by Leviticus 19:7; and becomes acceptable, when what follows about eating them is attended to.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Rather, ye shall offer it that you may be accepted.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Leviticus 19:5. Peace-offerings — See at the conclusion of Clarke's note "Leviticus 7:38".
