First-born animals
(Deut 15:19-23)
Since the firstborn of all animals belonged to God, people could not use them for their personal benefit (see notes on Exod 13:1-16).
Every firstborn clean animal was sacrificed to God and then eaten by the priests, unless it had some defect.
In that case it was used as ordinary meat (Deut 15:19-23; see also Num 18:17-18).
