Ibn Ezra on Leviticus 19:5

Home

Torah

5 ‎[1] AND WHEN YE OFFER A SACRIFICE OF PEACE-OFFERINGS. This is connected to what is written above. It means that one shall not sacrifice to the demons, no-gods, but only unto God. Scripture employs the plural *tizbechu* (ye offer), for Scripture is speaking about what is most prevalent, for people to join together to offer a sacrifice.

‎[2] Scripture reads *li-retzonekhem* (that ye may be accepted) because they shall not be forced to bring the offering but shall offer it of their own free will.
