Then the LORD said to Moses
on Leviticus 22:26-30
The third speech turns to an animal's life: a newborn stays "with its mother for seven days" and is acceptable from the eighth. An ox or sheep may not be slaughtered on the same day as its young, and Leviticus gives no reason.

On the same day it shall be eaten up,.... Which is the law concerning it; See Gill on Lev 7:15, ye shall leave none of it till the morning; of another day, as the Vulgate Latin version adds, and much less the fat of them, and the most holy things, as Ben Gersom observes, the one being to be burnt upon the altar, the other to be eaten by the priests I am the Lord; who has made this law, and expect it will be observed.
This is a repetition of what we had before, ch. vii. The chapter concludes with such a general charge as we have often met with, to keep God's commandments, and not to profane his holy name,

Leave none of it until the morrow - See the note on Lev 7:15.
