Lev 27:2 | MHM | STEP | v. 2 : The law covers people who make a "singular vow," meaning they promise themselves or someone else to God’s service. Sometimes this meant working at the tabernacle in simple jobs. God accepted the good intention even if He did not need the service, since the Levites already served at the tabernacle . These people had to be "redeemed," meaning money was paid instead of service. The money went to repairs or needs of the sanctuary (2 Kings 12:14 ).
