First-born, Sanctification of the
        A peculiar sanctity was attached to the first-born both of man
        and of cattle. God claimed that the first-born males of man and
        of animals should be consecrated to him, the one as a priest
        (Ex. 19:22, 24), representing the family to which he belonged,
        and the other to be offered up in sacrifice (Gen. 4:4).
