Deuteronomy12:11

11 Then there shall be a place which the LORD your God shall chuse to cause his Name to dwell there, thither shall ye bring all that I command you: your burnt-offerings, and your sacrifices, your tithes, and the heave-offering of your hand, and all your choice vows , which ye vow unto the LORD.

(i. e.) His Majesty and glory, his worship and service, his special and gracious presence, and the tokens of it.

Heb. the choice of your vows, i. e. your select or chosen vows, so called, because things offered for vows were to be perfect, whereas superfluous or defective creatures were accepted in free-will offering, as appears from Levit. 22. 21, 22, 23.

Marginal references: 1 King. 8. 29. Psal. 78. 68.; Heb. the choice of your vows.
