**spake.** See note on [Leviticus 5:14](../../../kjv/leviticus/5/14) .

**and unto all the children of Israel.** First occurrence of this phrase: see note on [Leviticus 5:14](../../../kjv/leviticus/5/14) , marking the solemnity of the charge, and the subject.
**children.** Hebrew sons.

**What man soever** = Hebrew. *'ish 'ish* .
**killeth** [in sacrifice]. The Figure of speech *Ellipsis* ( App-6 . d) must be thus supplied. For, although the word is Hebrew. *shachat* ( App-43 .) and not *zabach* ( App-43 .), the context (verses: [Leviticus 17:7-9](../../../kjv/leviticus/17/7-9) ) shows that only *sacrifices* in unlawful places are being treated of. There is no contradiction, therefore, of [Deuteronomy 12:15](../../../kjv/deuteronomy/12/15) , [Deuteronomy 12:21](../../../kjv/deuteronomy/12/21) , where the context shows equally clearly that only *food* is in question. Compare [Leviticus 17:5](../../../kjv/leviticus/17/5) .

**tabernacle.** Hebrew. *mishkan.* App-40 .
**offer** = bring near. Hebrew. *karab.* App-43 .
**offering** = Hebrew. *korban.* App-43 .
**tabernacle** = tent. Hebrew. *'ohel* .

**offer** = slay in sacrifice. Hebrew. *zabach.* App-43 , thus showing the correct supply of the *ellipsis* in [Leviticus 17:3](../../../kjv/leviticus/17/3) .
**door** = entrance.

**burn** = burn as incense. Hebrew. *katar* . App-43 .
**sweet savour.** See note on [Leviticus 1:9](../../../kjv/leviticus/1/9) .

**no more:** implies that they had done so in Egypt to the goat image "Pan". Compare [Joshua 24:14](../../../kjv/joshua/24/14) .[Ezekiel 20:7](../../../kjv/ezekiel/20/7) ; [Ezekiel 23:3](../../../kjv/ezekiel/23/3) , &c, and especially [2 Chronicles 11:15](../../../kjv/2-chronicles/11/15) .
**offer** = slay in sacrifice. Hebrew zabac *h* . App-43 .
**devils.** Hebrew. *sa'ir.* (Only here and [2 Chronicles 11:15](../../../kjv/2-chronicles/11/15) , "devils". In [Isaiah 13:21](../../../kjv/isaiah/13/21) ; [Isaiah 34:14](../../../kjv/isaiah/34/14) rendered "satyrs" = an imaginary demon: half-goat, half-man. Septuagint = demons:) from Hebrew root, meaning to *shudder.* From this "Pan" came the "satyrs", "fauns", and woodland gods of Greece and Rome, and also the "devil" of Christendom.

**offereth** = offereth up. Hebrew. *alah* App-43 .

**offer** = prepare. Hebrew. *'asah.* App-43 .

**soul** = Hebrew. *nephesh.* App-13 .

**For.** This verse, with [Luke 24:39](../../../kjv/luke/24/39) . [1 Corinthians 15:50](../../../kjv/1-corinthians/15/50) and [Hebrews 13:20](../../../kjv/hebrews/13/20) , forms a strong chain of truth against the "Mass".
**make an atonement.** See note on [Exodus 29:33](../../../kjv/exodus/29/33) .
**soul.** Hebrew. *nephesh,* because the soul is the life. Thus a life is substituted for a life. Hence [Hebrews 9:22](../../../kjv/hebrews/9/22) .

**Therefore.** Hence [Acts 15:20](../../../kjv/acts/15/20) , [Acts 15:29](../../../kjv/acts/15/29) ; [Acts 21:25](../../../kjv/acts/21/25) .

**which hunteth** = which shall hunt any hunting. Figure of speech *Polyptoton,* a necessity with Israel, not sport; for extermination ([Exodus 23:29](../../../kjv/exodus/23/29) ) and for food ([Genesis 25:27](../../../kjv/genesis/25/27) . [Proverbs 12:27](../../../kjv/proverbs/12/27) ). Compare [1 Samuel 14:32-34](../../../kjv/1-samuel/14/32-34) and [Ezekiel 33:25](../../../kjv/ezekiel/33/25) .

**bathe.** See note on [Leviticus 14:9](../../../kjv/leviticus/14/9) . The rigour of this law seen from [1 Samuel 14:32-35](../../../kjv/1-samuel/14/32-35) .

**iniquity.** Hebrew. *'avah.* App-44 .
