New Testament

Leviticus 22:14-19 New Living Translation (NLT)

14. “Any such person who eats the sacred offerings without realizing it must pay the priest for the amount eaten, plus an additional 20 percent.

15. The priests must not let the Israelites defile the sacred offerings brought to the lord

16. by allowing unauthorized people to eat them. This would bring guilt upon them and require them to pay compensation. I am the lord who makes them holy.”

17. And the lord said to Moses,

18. “Give Aaron and his sons and all the Israelites these instructions, which apply both to native Israelites and to the foreigners living among you.“If you present a gift as a burnt offering to the lord, whether it is to fulfill a vow or is a voluntary offering,

19. you will be accepted only if your offering is a male animal with no defects. It may be a bull, a ram, or a male goat.
