The firstborn animals

Deu 15:19–23

19 You must set apart for your god Yahweh, all the firstborn male animals from your herds and your flocks.[ref] You mustn’t use the cattle for working, and mustn’t shear the sheep or goats. 20 ⇔Each year, you and your household must take them to the place that Yahweh will choose, and eat them there in front of him. 21 However, any animals that have defects (e.g., lame or blind, or with a severe blemish) mustn’t be sacrificed to your god Yahweh. 22 Instead, you can eat those at home whether or not you’re ceremonially ‘clean’, just like you’d eat a wild gazelle or deer. 23 However, don’t eat the blood—it must be poured out on the ground like water.[ref]

17:10-14:

10 If there’s any Israeli or foreigner living among them, who eats blood, then I’ll oppose that person and remove them from the community[ref] 11 because the body’s life is in the blood. I myself have given you blood to make atonement for your lives at the altar, because it’s the blood that can atone for life.[ref] 12 That’s why I told the Israelis that none of them must eat blood—not even the foreigners that live among them may eat blood.

13 So any person (Israeli or foreigner living among them) who catches wild game (including birds) to eat, they must pour its blood out and cover it with soil 14 because the life of their bodies is the blood that’s in them. Again, that’s why I’ve told the Israelis not to eat the blood of any living thing because the life is in the blood, and anyone who eats it must be cut off from the community.

Deu 12:16-23:

16 However, don’t eat the blood[ref]—it must be poured out on the ground like water. 17 In your towns, don’t eat the tenth of your produce or the firstborns from your herd or flock, or at the celebration of a vow, or any free-will offering or contribution that you’ve made. 18 You can only eat those in Yahweh’s presence in the place that he’ll choose. The same applies to your children, your servants, and any Levites who live in your towns. The celebration for what you’ve produced must be done in front of your god Yahweh. 19 Make sure that you don’t neglect the Levites as long as you live in your land.

20 In the future, when your god Yahweh widens your territory like he’s said he would, if you want to eat meat there, then go ahead and do it. 21 If the place that he chooses to attach his name to is too far away, then it’s permissible to sacrifice like I’ve instructed you from your herd or flock, and you can eat it where you live whenever you want. 22 You can eat it whether or not you’re ceremonially ‘clean’, just like you’d eat a wild gazelle or deer. 23 However, don’t eat the blood of any animal, because the blood is the life and you mustn’t eat the life with the meat.[ref]
