The Law of the Devoted Thing (Cherem)
Leviticus 27:28-29
28
However, nothing consecrated unconditionally which a person may consecrate to ADONAI out of all he owns - person, animal or field he possesses -is to be sold or redeemed; because everything consecrated unconditionally is especially holy to ADONAI.
29
No person who has been sentenced to die, and thus unconditionally consecrated, can be redeemed; he must be put to death.
