This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Of those beasts whose blood (hōn zōōn to haima toutōn). The antecedent (zōōn) of hōn is here incorporated and attracted into the case of the relative, “the blood of which beasts” and then toutōn (genitive demonstrative) is added, “of these.” Cf. Lev 4:12., Lev 4:21; Lev 16:27 for the Old Testament ritual in such cases. This is the only example in the lxx or N.T. where zōōn (animal) is used of a sacrificial victim. See also Exo 29:14; Exo 32:26. for burning without the camp.
