| These full and varied offerings constitute the payment of vows (Lev 22:18-23). |
| Notes on the Bible, by Albert Barnes, [1834] |
I will go into thy house with burnt-offeriings - To thy temple - the place of worship. This is language designed to represent the feelings and the purpose of the people. If the psalm was composed on occasion of the return from the Babylonian captivity, it means that, as their first act, the people would go to the house of God, and acknowledge his goodness to them, and render him praise. On the word burnt-offerings, see the notes at Isa 1:11.
I will pay thee my vows - I will keep the solemn promises which I had made; that is, the promises which the people had made in the long period of their captivity. On the word vows, see the notes at Psa 22:25. |
| Commentary on the Old Testament, by Carl Friedrich Keil and Franz Delitzsch [1857-78] |
| From this point onwards the poet himself speaks, but, as the diversity and the kind of the sacrifices show, as being a member of the community at large. The עולות stand first, the girts of adoring homage; בּ is the Beth of the accompaniment, as in Lev 16:3; Sa1 1:24, cf. Heb 9:25. "My vows" refer more especially to פּצה פּה ׃שׁלמי נדר also occurs elsewhere of the involuntary vowing to do extraordinary things urged from one by great distress (Jdg 11:35). אשׁר is an accusative of the object relating to the vows, quae aperuerunt = aperiendo nuncupaverunt labia mea (Geier). In Psa 66:15 עשׂה, used directly (like the Aramaic and Phoenician עבד) in the signification "to sacrifice" (Exo 29:36-41, and frequently), alternates with העלה, the synonym of הקטיר. The sacrifices to be presented are enumerated. מיחים (incorrect for מחים) are marrowy, fat lambs; lambs and bullocks (בּקר) have the most universal appropriation among the animals that were fit for sacrifices. The ram (איל), on the contrary, is the animal for the whole burnt-offering of the high priest, of the princes of the tribes, and of the people; and appears also as the animal for the shelamim only in connection with the shelamim of Aaron, of the people, of the princes of the tribes, and, in Num 6:14, of the Nazarite. The younger he-goat (עתּוּד) is never mentioned as an animal for the whole burnt-offering; but, indeed, as an animal for the shelamim of the princes of the tribes in Num. 7. It is, therefore, probable that the shelamim which were to be offered in close connection with the whole burnt-offerings are introduced by עם, so that קטרת signifies the fat portions of the shelamim upon the altar smoking in the fire. The mention of "rams" renders it necessary that we should regard the poet as here comprehending himself among the people when he speaks thus. |
| Adam Clarke Commentary on the Whole Bible - Published 1810-1826 |
I will go into thy house with burnt-offerings - Now that thou hast restored us to our own land, and established us in it, we will establish thy worship, and offer all the various kinds of sacrifices required by thy law.
I will pay thee my vows - We often vowed, if thou wouldst deliver us from our bondage, to worship and serve thee alone: now thou hast heard our prayers, and hast delivered us; therefore will we fulfill our engagements to thee. The old Psalter gives this a pious turn: - I sall yelde till the my woues, that is, the vowes of louying (praising) the; whilk vowes my lipes divisid sayand, that I am noght, and thou arte all: and I hafe nede of the, noght thou of me. This is a right distinction - It is certainly a good distinction, and it is strictly true. The allsufficient God needs not his creatures. |
18 Speak [01696] unto Aaron [0175], and to his sons [01121], and unto all the children [01121] of Israel [03478], and say [0559] unto them, Whatsoever [0376] he be of the house [01004] of Israel [03478], or of the strangers [01616] in Israel [03478], that will offer [07126] his oblation [07133] for all his vows [05088], and for all his freewill offerings [05071], which they will offer [07126] unto the LORD [03068] for a burnt offering [05930];
19 Ye shall offer at your own will [07522] a male [02145] without blemish [08549], of the beeves [01241], of the sheep [03775], or of the goats [05795].
20 But whatsoever hath a blemish [03971], that shall ye not offer [07126]: for it shall not be acceptable [07522] for you.
21 And whosoever [0376] offereth [07126] a sacrifice [02077] of peace offerings [08002] unto the LORD [03068] to accomplish [06381] his vow [05088], or a freewill offering [05071] in beeves [01241] or sheep [06629], it shall be perfect [08549] to be accepted [07522]; there shall be no blemish [03971] therein.
22 Blind [05788], or broken [07665], or maimed [02782], or having a wen [02990], or scurvy [01618], or scabbed [03217], ye shall not offer [07126] these unto the LORD [03068], nor make [05414] an offering by fire [0801] of them upon the altar [04196] unto the LORD [03068].
23 Either a bullock [07794] or a lamb [07716] that hath any thing superfluous [08311] or lacking in his parts [07038], that mayest thou offer [06213] for a freewill offering [05071]; but for a vow [05088] it shall not be accepted [07521].
25 My praise [08416] shall be of thee in the great [07227] congregation [06951]: I will pay [07999] my vows [05088] before them that fear [03373] him.
11 To what [04100] purpose is the multitude [07230] of your sacrifices [02077] unto me? saith [0559] the LORD [03068]: I am full [07646] of the burnt offerings [05930] of rams [0352], and the fat [02459] of fed beasts [04806]; and I delight [02654] not in the blood [01818] of bullocks [06499], or of lambs [03532], or of he goats [06260].
14 And he shall offer [07126] his offering [07133] unto the LORD [03068], one [0259] he lamb [03532] of the first [01121] year [08141] without blemish [08549] for a burnt offering [05930], and one [0259] ewe lamb [03535] of the first [01323] year [08141] without blemish [08549] for a sin offering [02403], and one [0259] ram [0352] without blemish [08549] for peace offerings [08002],
36 And thou shalt offer [06213] every day [03117] a bullock [06499] for a sin offering [02403] for atonement [03725]: and thou shalt cleanse [02398] the altar [04196], when thou hast made an atonement [03722] for it, and thou shalt anoint [04886] it, to sanctify [06942] it.
37 Seven [07651] days [03117] thou shalt make an atonement [03722] for the altar [04196], and sanctify [06942] it; and it shall be an altar [04196] most holy [06944] [06944]: whatsoever toucheth [05060] the altar [04196] shall be holy [06942].
38 Now this is that which thou shalt offer [06213] upon the altar [04196]; two [08147] lambs [03532] of the first [01121] year [08141] day [03117] by day [03117] continually [08548].
39 The one [0259] lamb [03532] thou shalt offer [06213] in the morning [01242]; and the other [08145] lamb [03532] thou shalt offer [06213] at even [06153]:
40 And with the one [0259] lamb [03532] a tenth [06241] deal of flour [05560] mingled [01101] with the fourth part [07253] of an hin [01969] of beaten [03795] oil [08081]; and the fourth part [07243] of an hin [01969] of wine [03196] for a drink offering [05262].
41 And the other [08145] lamb [03532] thou shalt offer [06213] at even [06153], and shalt do [06213] thereto according to the meat offering [04503] of the morning [01242], and according to the drink offering [05262] thereof, for a sweet [05207] savour [07381], an offering made by fire [0801] unto the LORD [03068].
15 I will offer [05927] unto thee burnt sacrifices [05930] of fatlings [04220], with the incense [07004] of rams [0352]; I will offer [06213] bullocks [01241] with goats [06260]. Selah [05542].
35 And it came to pass, when he saw [07200] her, that he rent [07167] his clothes [0899], and said [0559], Alas [0162], my daughter [01323]! thou hast brought [03766] me very [03766] low [03766], and thou art one of them that trouble [05916] me: for I have opened [06475] my mouth [06310] unto the LORD [03068], and I cannot [03201] go back [07725].
25 Nor [3761] yet that [2443] he should offer [4374] himself [1438] often [4178], as [5618] the high priest [749] entereth [1525] into [1519] the holy place [39] every [2596] year [1763] with [1722] blood [129] of others [245];
24 And when she had weaned [01580] him, she took him up [05927] with her, with three [07969] bullocks [06499], and one [0259] ephah [0374] of flour [07058], and a bottle [05035] of wine [03196], and brought [0935] him unto the house [01004] of the LORD [03068] in Shiloh [07887]: and the child [05288] was young [05288].
3 Thus [02063] shall Aaron [0175] come [0935] into the holy [06944] place: with a young [01121] [01241] bullock [06499] for a sin offering [02403], and a ram [0352] for a burnt offering [05930].
