| Résumé: | Many scholars believe Exodus 20:24-26 and Deuteronomy 12:1-28 present contradictory regulations on how and where to sacrifice. Exodus 20:24-26 seems to imply that sacrificial altars can be built at any location throughout the country, while Deuteronomy appears to prohibit all sacrifice outside of the central place of worship. Scholars have dealt with this discrepancy in various ways. In this paper I show how none of these explanations hold up to closer scrutiny and argue that both texts simply address different types of sacrifices permitted in ancient Israel. |
