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
The literal meaning of the passage in italics is, and this shall ye not do in your land. It appears to have been understood by the Jews as a prohibition of the mutilation of animals.
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.
