This is the law of the Nazirite who vows his offering to the LORD for his separation, in addition to whatever else he can afford; he must fulfill whatever vow he makes, according to the law of his separation.”
Num 6:21 “This is the law of the Nazarite, who vowed his sacrificial gifts to the Lord on the ground of his consecration,” i.e., who offered his sacrifice in accordance with the state of a Nazarite into which he had entered. For the sacrifices mentioned in Num 6:14. were not the object of a special vow, but contained in the vow of the Nazarite, and therefore already vowed (Knobel).
This [is] the law of the Nazarite who hath vowed, [and of] his offering unto the LORD for his separation, beside [that] that his hand shall get: according to the vow which he vowed, so he must do after the law of his separation. (k) At the least he shall do this, if he is not able to offer more.
The Nazarite vow distinguishes those who profess greater strictness and zeal in religion than their neighbors. Some were lifelong Nazarites by divine appointment or parental dedication; this law concerns those who bind themselves voluntarily for a season. A woman might take this vow under the conditions given. These separated ones devoted themselves to the Lord's service, to the study of His law, and to devotion.
