Jehovah continued to speak to Moses: Speak to Aaron, his sons, and all the Israelites, and tell them: 'Israelites or foreigners may bring burnt offerings to Jehovah for anything they vowed or as freewill offerings. The offering must be a male that has no defects from your cattle, sheep, or goats in order to be accepted. read more.
Do not bring any animal with a physical defect. This is because it will not be acceptable for you. A person may bring Jehovah a peace offering to fulfill a vow or for a freewill offering. Whether it is from the cattle, sheep, or goats, it must be an animal that has no defects in order to be acceptable. It must never be an animal that has defects. Do not bring Jehovah an animal that is blind, has broken bones, cuts, warts, scabs, or ringworm. Never give Jehovah any of these in a sacrifice by fire on the altar. You may use a bull or a sheep with a deformity or one that is stunted in growth as a freewill offering. However, it will not be accepted for a vow. Do not bring Jehovah an animal that has bruised, crushed, torn out, or cut out testicles. Never do any of these things to an animal in your land. Never bring any kind of castrated animal received from a foreigner as a food offering for your God. A castrated animal will not be accepted on your behalf because castration is a physical defect.'

Jehovah said to Moses:
Offerings » Free-will » To be eaten by priests
These are the instructions for the fellowship offering that you must bring to Jehovah. If you offer it as a thank offering, you must also bring rings of unleavened bread mixed with oil, wafers of unleavened bread brushed with oil, and loaves made from flour mixed well with oil. In addition to these rings of bread, you must bring leavened bread (with yeast) along with your fellowship offering of thanksgiving. read more.
He will present one of every offering as a contribution to Jehovah. It will belong to the priest who sprinkles the blood of the peace offerings. The flesh of the sacrifice of his thanksgiving peace offerings will be eaten on the day of his offering. He should not leave any of it over until morning. If the sacrifice of his offering is a votive or a freewill offering, it shall be eaten on the day that he offers his sacrifice as well as on the next day. Anything left over from the flesh of the sacrifice on the third day shall be burned. If any of the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace offerings is eaten on the third day, he who offers it will not be accepted. It will not be considered for his benefit. It will be an offensive thing, and the person who eats of it will bear his own iniquity.
