But the soul that eateth [of] the flesh of the sacrifice of the peace offerings, that [pertain] unto the Lord, etc.] That are offered up to him, and so are holy, and therefore not to be eaten by unholy persons, or by any having his uncleanness upon him; a profluvious person that has an issue running out of him, a gonorrhoea; (see <031502>Leviticus 15:2) even that soul shall be cut off from his people; be disfranchised as an Israelite, be debarred the privileges of the sanctuary, or be cut off by death before the usual time and term of man’s life; so those that eat and drink unworthily in the supper of our Lord, where his flesh is eaten and his blood drank, eat and drink damnation to themselves, (<461129>1 Corinthians 11:29).
