27 Anyone who eats blood must be cut off from their people.' "
27 Whatsoever soul it be that eateth any manner of blood, even that soul shall be cut off from his people.
27 Whoever eats any blood, that person shall be cut off from his people."
27 If you eat blood you'll be excluded from the congregation."
27 Whoever eats any blood, that person shall be cut off from his people.' "
27 Anyone who consumes blood will be cut off from the community."
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Leviticus 7:27
Commentary on Leviticus 7:11-27
(Read Leviticus 7:11-27)
As to the peace-offerings, in the expression of their sense of mercy, God left them more at liberty, than in the expression of their sense of sin; that their sacrifices, being free-will offerings, might be the more acceptable, while, by obliging them to bring the sacrifices of atonement, God shows the necessity of the great Propitiation. The main reason why blood was forbidden of old, was because the Lord had appointed blood for an atonement. This use, being figurative, had its end in Christ, who by his death and blood-shedding caused the sacrifices to cease. Therefore this law is not now in force on believers.
