**Shney Luchot Habrit by Rabbi Eliyahu Munk:**
Commandment 445 forbids the eating of an unblemished firstling outside of Jerusalem, for the Torah (12,17) writes: "You may not eat of the firstlings of your herds or flocks, etc." This prohibition also includes a prohibition for a non-priest to eat such firstlings in any location.


###### Shenei Luchot HaBerit, Torah Shebikhtav, Re'eh, Ner Mitzvah 12
[Shenei Luchot HaBerit, Torah Shebikhtav, Re'eh, Ner Mitzvah 12](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Shenei%20Luchot%20HaBerit/s/Torah%20Shebikhtav,_Re%27eh,_Ner%20Mitzvah/r/12)

**Shney Luchot Habrit by Rabbi Eliyahu Munk:**
Commandment 447 prohibits consumption of any part of the עולה, total offering. The Torah (12,17) speaks about your not being able to eat certain categories of offerings outside the Temple. We interpret this as if the Torah had said: "You may not eat certain categories of your vows which you will vow."


###### Shenei Luchot HaBerit, Torah Shebikhtav, Re'eh, Ner Mitzvah 14

**Shney Luchot Habrit by Rabbi Eliyahu Munk:**
Commandment 448 prohibits the eating of קדשים קלים, i.e. offerings some parts of which may be consumed by the owner, before completion of the sprinkling of the blood on the altar. This is also derived from 12,17. The word ונדבותיך is understood as basically superfluous and therefore used to refer to premature consumption of freewill offerings such as תודה and שלמים.

**Shney Luchot Habrit by Rabbi Eliyahu Munk:**
Commandment 450 forbids us to abandon the Levite and enjoins us not to be lax in paying them the various gifts the Torah has assigned to them. This means that we must not delay payment of the tithes especially before the festivals on which all male Jews make their pilgrimage to Jerusalem; the Torah has especially enjoined us to see to it that the Levites should be able to rejoice on those festivals. This is the reason for 12,19: "Be sure not to neglect the Levite as long as you live in the land."
