דם יחשב לאיש ההוא דם שפך - חיוב מיתה, יחשב משמים לאיש ההוא אותו דם ששפך בשעת שחיטת חוץ.

**Eliyahu Munk, HaChut Hameshulash:**
דם יחשב לאיש ההוא דם שפך, the person is guilty of death at the hands of heaven, in return for the blood of the animal he had spilled outside the holy precincts. [at that time in the desert, killing an animal for food unless as a sacrifice was equivalent to shedding innocent blood. Ed.]

אשר הם זבחים על פני השדה - ויש מהם שטועים לשעירים ולא לשמים.

**Eliyahu Munk, HaChut Hameshulash:**
אשר הם זובחים על פני האדמה, some of them even err in slaughtering such animals as sacrifices to demons instead of as sacrifices to G’d.

וכסה בעפר - כי אז לא יהא ראוי לאכילה.

אשר תאכל נבלה - אפילו קטן יטמא.

**Eliyahu Munk, HaChut Hameshulash:**
אשר תאכל נבלה, even a minor will become ritually defiled. [because the Torah addresses itself to כל נפש, “every living person.” Ed.]

ונשא עונו - אם יאכל קודש או נכנס למקדש.

**Eliyahu Munk, HaChut Hameshulash:**
ונשא עונו, if he either consumes sacred meat or sacred products in a state of ritual impurity, or if he enters the holy precincts in such a state.
