This site's exposition

Then the LORD said to Moses

on Leviticus 22:17-20

The second speech widens the address to "all the Israelites" and "any foreign resident", because the one who brings the animal chooses it. The standard is "an unblemished male", and verse 20 states the result of missing it: "it will not be accepted on your behalf".

This site's exposition

or any foreign resident who presents a gift

The verse names two occasions for a burnt offering, a vow and a freewill offering, which verse 23 treats differently. Matthew Henry notes that even a foreign resident was held to an unblemished animal, though strangers were to be encouraged to honour Israel's God.
