killeth [in sacrifice]. The Figure of speech Ellipsis (App-6. d) must be thus supplied. For, although the word is Hebrew. shachat (App-43.) and not zabach (App-43.), the context (verses: Lev_17:7-9) shows that only sacrifices in unlawful places are being treated of. There is no contradiction, therefore, of Deu_12:15, Deu_12:21, where the context shows equally clearly that only food is in question. Compare Lev_17:5.
