<p class="tab-1">The <a class="bibleref" title="Lev.26.46" href="/passage/?search=Lev.26.46">Lev. 26:46</a> seemed to close up the statute-book; yet this chapter is added as an appendix. Having given laws concerning instituted services, here he directs concerning vows and voluntary services, the free-will offerings of their mouth. Perhaps some devout serious people among them might be so affected with what Moses had delivered to them in the foregoing chapter as in a pang of zeal to consecrate themselves, or their children, or estates to him: this, because honestly meant, God would accept; but, because men are apt to repent of such vows, he leaves room for the redemption of what had been so consecrated, at a certain rate. Here is, I. The law concerning what was sanctified to God, persons (<a class="bibleref" title="Lev.27.2-Lev.27.8" href="/passage/?search=Lev.27.2-Lev.27.8">Lev. 27:2-8</a>), cattle, clean or unclean (<a class="bibleref" title="Lev.27.9-Lev.27.13" href="/passage/?search=Lev.27.9-Lev.27.13">Lev. 27:9-13</a>), houses and lands (<a class="bibleref" title="Lev.27.15-Lev.27.25" href="/passage/?search=Lev.27.15-Lev.27.25">Lev. 27:15-25</a>), with an exception of firstlings, <a class="bibleref" title="Lev.27.26,Lev.27.27" href="/passage/?search=Lev.27.26,Lev.27.27"><span class="bibleref" title="Lev.27.26">Lev. 27:26</span>, <span class="bibleref" title="Lev.27.27">27</span></a>. II. Concerning what was devoted, <a class="bibleref" title="Lev.27.28,Lev.27.29" href="/passage/?search=Lev.27.28,Lev.27.29"><span class="bibleref" title="Lev.27.28">Lev. 27:28</span>, <span class="bibleref" title="Lev.27.29">29</span></a>.
