Fimmta Mósebók 12:21

Heilögum Biblíunni

21 Ef sá staður, sem Drottinn Guð þinn velur til þess að láta nafn sitt búa þar, er mjög langt í burtu frá þér, þá skalt þú slátra af nautum þínum og sauðum, sem Drottinn hefir gefið þér, eins og ég hefi fyrir þig lagt, og þú skalt eta það innan borgarhliða þinna eins og þig lystir.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

If the place which the Lord thy God hath chosen to put his name be too far from thee,.... Or rather "for" h, or "seeing" the place will be too far from thee; for it is allowed before that they might kill and eat flesh for common food in their gates, Deuteronomy 12:15

then thou shalt kill of thy herd and of thy flock; of thy oxen and of thy sheep, creatures used in sacrifice; but this was no bar to the use of them for common food also:

which the Lord hath given thee, as I have commanded thee; Deuteronomy 12:15

and thou shalt eat in thy gates whatsoever thy soul lusteth after; flesh of any sort, lawful to be eaten.

h כי "cum", Pagninus, Montanus.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

If the place ... - Rather, “Because, or since, the place will be too far from thee.” The permission given in Deuteronomy 12:15-16 is repeated, and the reason of it assigned.
