[2:12]  ¹ sn The “first fruit” referred to here was given to the priests as a prebend for their service to the Lord, not offered on the altar (Num 18:12).

[3:4]  ² tn Heb “and the protruding lobe on the liver on the kidneys he shall remove it.” Cf. NRSV “the appendage of the liver”; NIV “the covering of the liver” (KJV “the caul above the liver”).

[3:10]  ³ tn Heb “and the protruding lobe on the liver on the kidneys he shall remove it.”

[3:15]  ⁴ tn Heb “and the protruding lobe on the liver on the kidneys he shall remove it.”

[4:9]  ⁵ tn Heb “and the protruding lobe on the liver on the kidneys he shall remove it.”

[6:7]  ⁶ sn Regarding “make atonement” see the note on Lev 1:4.

[6:7]  ⁷ tn Heb “there shall be forgiveness to him” or “it shall be forgiven to him” (KJV similar).

[6:7]  ⁸ tn Heb “on one from all which he does to become guilty in it”; NAB “whatever guilt he may have incurred.”

[7:10]  ⁹ tn Heb “a man like his brother.”

[11:45]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “to be to you for a God.”

[14:20]  ¹¹ tn Heb “cause to go up.”

[14:53]  ¹² tn Heb “to from outside to the city.”

[18:5]  ¹³ tn Heb “And you shall keep.”

[18:5]  ¹⁴ tn Heb “which the man shall do them and shall live in them.” The term for “a man, human being; mankind” (אָדָם, ’adam; see the note on Lev 1:2) in this case refers to any person among “mankind,” male or female. The expression וָחַי (vakhay, “and shall live”) looks like the adjective “living” so it is written וְחָיָה (vÿkhayah) in Smr, but the MT form is simply the same verb written as a double ayin verb (see HALOT 309 s.v. חיה qal and GKC 218 §76.i; cf. Lev 25:35).

[19:17]  ¹⁵ tn Heb “and you will not lift up on him sin.” The meaning of the line is somewhat obscure. It means either (1) that one should rebuke one’s neighbor when he sins lest one also becomes guilty, which is the way it is rendered here (see NIV, NRSV, NEB, JB; see also B. A. Levine, Leviticus [JPSTC], 129-30, and J. E. Hartley, Leviticus [WBC], 303, and the discussion on pp. 316-17), or (2) one may rebuke one’s neighbor without incurring sin just as long as he does not hate him in his heart (see the first part of the verse; cf. NASB, NAB).

[23:5]  ¹⁶ tn Heb “between the two evenings,” perhaps designating the time between the setting of the sun and the true darkness of night. Cf. KJV, ASV “at even”; NAB “at the evening twilight.”

[23:5]  sn See B. A. Levine, Leviticus (JPSTC), 156, for a full discussion of the issues raised in this verse. The rabbinic tradition places the slaughter of Passover offerings between approximately 3:00 p.m. and 6:00 p.m., not precisely at twilight. Moreover, the term פֶּסַח (pesakh) may mean “protective offering” rather than “Passover offering,” although they amount to about the same thing in the historical context of the exodus from Egypt (see Exod 11-12).

[23:10]  ¹⁷ tn Heb “and you harvest its harvest.”

[23:10]  ¹⁸ tn Heb “the sheaf of the first of your harvest.”

[23:24]  ¹⁹ tn Heb “a memorial of loud blasts.” Although the term for “horn” does not occur here, allowing for the possibility that vocal “shouts” of acclamation are envisioned (see P. J. Budd, Leviticus [NCBC], 325), the “blast” of the shofar (a trumpet made from a ram’s “horn”) is most likely what is intended. On this occasion, the loud blasts on the horn announced the coming of the new year on the first day of the seventh month (see the explanations in J. E. Hartley, Leviticus [WBC], 387, and B. A. Levine, Leviticus [JPSTC], 160).

[24:6]  ²⁰ tn Heb “six of the row.”

[25:8]  ²¹ tn Heb “And you shall count off for yourself.”

[25:8]  ²² tn Heb “seven years seven times.”

[25:8]  ²³ tn Heb “and they shall be for you, the days of the seven Sabbaths of years, forty-nine years.”

[25:16]  ²⁴ tn Heb “To the mouth of the many years.”

[25:16]  ²⁵ tn Heb “to the mouth of the few years.”

[25:16]  ²⁶ tn Heb “a number of produce”; the words “years of” are implied. As an alternative this could be translated “a number of harvests” (cf. NRSV, NLT).

[25:18]  ²⁷ tn Heb “And you shall keep and do them.” This appears to be a kind of verbal hendiadys, where the first verb is a modifier of the action of the second verb (see GKC 386 §120.d, although שָׁמַר [shamar, “to keep”] is not cited there; cf. Lev 20:8, etc.).

[25:18]  ²⁸ tn Heb “and you shall dwell on the land to security.”

[25:41]  ²⁹ tn Heb “and.” The Hebrew conjunction ו (vav, “and”) can be considered to have adversative force here.

[25:41]  ³⁰ tn Heb “may go out from you.”

[25:41]  ³¹ tn Heb “fathers.”

[27:32]  ³² sn The tithed animal was the tenth one that passed under the shepherd’s rod or staff as they were being counted (see J. E. Hartley, Leviticus [WBC], 485, and B. A. Levine, Leviticus [JPSTC], 200).
