Commentary for Avodah Zarah 102:4

מכאן ואילך הוא מדבר בקדשים שהקדישן בשעת היתר הבמות והקריבן בשעת איסור הבמות

From this point and onwards it speaks of sacrificial animals which he dedicated during the time that private altars were permitted but that he offered when private altars were prohibited,

Daf Shevui to Avodah Zarah

The verses that follow, from verse 5 and onwards, refer to a case where the person dedicated the animal when it was still permitted to offer animals on private altars, but then sacrificed it after the Tabernacle had already been erected, when private altars were prohibited. Although the animal was permitted as a sacrifice when it was dedicated, it was forbidden to sacrifice it. And even though he offered it on an altar, Scripture treats this as if the altar was irrelevant. It is like sacrificing in an open field.
