This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
I have paid my peace-offerings which I had vowed; whereby she signifies, either,
1. That she was no common harlot, but one of good repute for religion. Or rather,
2. That she had plentiful and excellent provisions at her house for his entertainment. For the peace-offerings were to be of the best flesh, Lev_22:21, and a considerable part of these offerings fell to the offerers’ share, wherewith they used to feast themselves and their friends; see Lev_2:3, &c.; Lev_7:31, &c.; Lev_19:6, &c.; Lev_22:30, &c.; whereas the burnt-offerings where wholly consumed, and the flesh of the sin-offerings and trespass-offerings belonged to the priest.
