Leviticus 22:25

“Neither from a stranger’s hand shall ye offer the bread of your God of any of these, etc.] That is, from a Gentile, a proselyte of the gate, who had renounced idolatry, and was willing to offer sacrifice to the true God; but what had such defects and blemishes in them as before described the priest might not take of his hands, and offer on the altar of God; and this is the rather observed, because on the one hand the Gentile might think such sacrifices would be acceptable, since he might have been used to offer such to idols; and on the other hand, the priest might think such would do well enough for Gentiles, though not for Israelites: because their corruption [is] in them; or they are…”

“A stranger’s hand - The word here rendered “stranger”, is not the same as that in Leviticus 22:10, Leviticus 22:18 : it means literally, “the son of the unknown”, and probably refers to one dwelling in another land who desired to show respect to the God of Israel. See 1 Kings 8:41. return to 'Top of Page'”

“A stranger's hand - From proselytes: even from those, such should not be accepted, much less from the Israelites. The bread of your God - That is, the sacrifices. Leviticus 22:28”

“a stranger's: Num 15:14-16, Num 16:40; Ezr 6:8-10 the bread: Lev 21:6, Lev 21:8, Lev 21:21, Lev 21:22; Mal 1:7, Mal 1:8, Mal 1:12-14 because: Eph 2:12; Jo1 5:18 Leviticus 22:27”

“Again, the Israelites were not to accept any one of all these, i.e., the faulty animals described, as sacrifice from a foreigner. "For their corruption is in them," i.e., something corrupt, a fault, adheres to them; so that such offerings could not procure good pleasure towards them. - In Lev 22:26-30 three laws are given of a similar character. Leviticus 22:27”
