[13:5]  ¹ tn Heb “and behold” (so KJV, ASV).

[13:5]  ² tn Heb “the infection has stood in his eyes”; ASV “if in his eyes the plague be at a stay.”

[13:5]  ³ tn Although there is no expressed “and” at the beginning of this clause, there is in the corresponding clause of v. 6, so it should be assumed here as well.

[13:5]  ⁴ tn Heb “a second seven days.”

[13:21]  ⁵ tn Heb “and if.”

[13:21]  ⁶ tn Heb “and behold” (so KJV, ASV, NASB).

[13:21]  ⁷ tn Heb “and the priest will shut him up seven days.”

[13:26]  ⁸ tn Heb “and if.”

[13:26]  ⁹ tn Heb “and behold” (so KJV, ASV); NASB “and indeed.”

[13:26]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “and low it is not ‘from’ (comparative מִן, min, “lower than”) the skin.” See the note on v. 20 above. Cf. TEV “not deeper than the surrounding skin.”

[13:26]  ¹¹ tn Heb “and the priest will shut him up seven days.”

[13:33]  ¹² tn The shaving is done by the one who has the infection. Although KJV, ASV have the passive “he shall be shaven” here, most modern English versions have the reflexive “shall shave himself” (so NAB).

[13:33]  ¹³ tn Heb “but the scall shall he not shave” (so KJV, ASV); NIV “except for the diseased area.”

[13:33]  ¹⁴ tn Heb “and the priest will shut up the scall a second seven days.”

[13:46]  ¹⁵ tn Heb “All the days which the infection is in him.”

[14:38]  ¹⁶ tn Heb “and he shall shut up the house seven days.”

[12:14]  ¹⁷ tn The form is intensified by the infinitive absolute, but here the infinitive strengthens not simply the verbal idea but the conditional cause construction as well.

[12:15]  ¹⁸ tn The clause has the Niphal infinitive construct after a temporal preposition.

[24:9]  ¹⁹ sn What the Lord your God did to Miriam. The reference is to Miriam’s having contracted leprosy because of her intemperate challenge to Moses’ leadership (Num 12:1-15). The purpose for the allusion here appears to be the assertion of the theocratic leadership of the priests who, like Moses, should not be despised.
