ExplanationCommentary
Verse 25. Ones. Hebrew “the saint or holy thing.” Bible.—Chal. “to make a vow for the sanctuary, and afterwards repent;” having acted inconsiderately at first. To attack the persons or relics of the saints, or to plunder what is consecrated to pious uses, will bring on destruction; so also to make vows, and then seek to evade them, will not pass unpunished. Calmet.
