Imamat 3:10

3:10 the two kidneys with the fat on their sinews, and the protruding lobe on the liver (which he is to remove along with the kidneys). ³ 

Imamat 3:16

3:16 Then the priest must offer them up in smoke on the altar as a food gift for a soothing aroma – all the fat belongs to the Lord.

Imamat 13:10

13:10 The priest will then examine it, ⁴  and if ⁵  a white swelling is on the skin, it has turned the hair white, and there is raw flesh in the swelling, ⁶ 

Imamat 13:15

13:15 so the priest is to examine the raw flesh ⁷  and pronounce him unclean ⁸  – it is diseased.

Imamat 14:34

14:34 “When you enter the land of Canaan which I am about to give ⁹  to you for a possession, and I put ¹⁰  a diseased infection in a house in the land you are to possess, ¹¹ 

Imamat 14:52

Imamat 17:9

23:10 “Speak to the Israelites and tell them, ‘When you enter the land that I am about to give to you and you gather in its harvest, ¹⁹  then you must bring the sheaf of the first portion of your harvest ²⁰  to the priest, 23:11 and he must wave the sheaf before the Lord to be accepted for your benefit ²¹  – on the day after the Sabbath the priest is to wave it. ²² 

Imamat 23:16

23:16 You must count fifty days – until the day after the seventh Sabbath – and then ²³  you must present a new grain offering to the Lord.

Imamat 23:24

23:24 “Tell the Israelites, ‘In the seventh month, on the first day of the month, you must have a complete rest, a memorial announced by loud horn blasts, ²⁴  a holy assembly.

Imamat 23:27

23:27 “The ²⁵  tenth day of this seventh month is the Day of Atonement. ²⁶  It is to be a holy assembly for you, and you must humble yourselves ²⁷  and present a gift to the Lord.

Imamat 25:15

[3:4]  ¹ 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”).

[3:8]  ² tn See the note on this term at 1:5.

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

[13:10]  ⁴ tn Heb “and the priest shall see.” The pronoun “it” is unexpressed, but it should be assumed and it refers to the infection (cf. the note on v. 8 above).

[13:10]  ⁵ tn Heb “and behold” (so KJV, ASV).

[13:10]  ⁶ tn Heb “and rawness [i.e., something living] of living flesh is in the swelling”; KJV, NASB, NRSV “quick raw flesh.”

[13:15]  ⁷ tn Heb “and the priest shall see the living flesh.”

[13:15]  ⁸ tn This is the declarative Piel of the verb טָמֵא (tame’; cf. the note on v. 3 above).

[14:34]  ⁹ tn Heb “which I am giving” (so NAB, NIV).

[14:34]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “give.”

[14:34]  ¹¹ tn Heb “in the house of the land of your possession” (KJV and ASV both similar).

[15:23]  ¹² tn Heb “and if on the bed it (הוּא, hu’) is or on the vessel which she sits on it, when he touches it….” The translation and meaning of this verse is a subject of much debate in the commentaries (see the summary in J. Milgrom, Leviticus [AB], 1:938-40). It is difficult to determine what הוּא refers to, whether it means “he” referring to the one who does the touching, “it” for the furniture or the seat in v. 22, “she” referring to the woman herself (see Smr היא rather than הוא), or perhaps anything that was lying on the furniture or the bed of vv. 21-22. The latter view is taken here (cf. J. E. Hartley, Leviticus [WBC], 202).

[15:23]  ¹³ tn The MT accent suggest that “when he touches it” goes with the preceding line, but it seems to be better to take it as an introduction to what follows (see J. E. Hartley, Leviticus [WBC], 202).

[17:9]  ¹⁴ tn Heb “to make it,” meaning “to make the sacrifice.”

[17:9]  ¹⁵ tn For remarks on the “cut off” penalty see the note on v. 4 above.

[21:17]  ¹⁶ tn Heb “to their generations.”

[21:17]  ¹⁷ tn Heb “who in him is a flaw”; cf. KJV, ASV “any blemish”; NASB, NIV “a defect.” The rendering “physical flaw” is used to refer to any birth defect or physical injury of the kind described in the following verses (cf. the same Hebrew word also in Lev 24:19-20). The same term is used for “flawed” animals, which must not be offered to the Lord in Lev 22:20-25.

[23:2]  ¹⁸ tn Heb “these are them, my appointed times.”

[23:2]  sn The term מוֹעֵד (mo’ed, rendered “appointed time” here) can refer to either a time or place of meeting. See the note on “tent of meeting” (אֹהֶל מוֹעֵד, ’ohel mo’ed) in Lev 1:1.

[23:10]  ¹⁹ tn Heb “and you harvest its harvest.”

[23:10]  ²⁰ tn Heb “the sheaf of the first of your harvest.”

[23:11]  ²¹ tn Heb “for your acceptance.”

[23:11]  ²² sn See Lev 7:30 for a note on the “waving” of a “wave offering.”

[23:16]  ²³ tn Heb “and.” In the translation “then” is supplied to clarify the sequence.

[23:24]  ²⁴ 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).

[23:27]  ²⁵ tn Heb “Surely the tenth day” or perhaps “Precisely the tenth day.” The Hebrew adverbial particle אַךְ (’akh) is left untranslated by most recent English versions; cf. however NASB “On exactly the tenth day.”

[23:27]  ²⁶ sn See the description of this day and its regulations in Lev 16 and the notes there.

[23:27]  ²⁷ tn Heb “you shall humble your souls.” See the note on Lev 16:29 above.

[24:2]  ²⁸ tn Heb “and let them take.” The simple vav (ו) on the imperfect/jussive form of the verb לָקַח (laqakh, “to take”) following the imperative (“Command”) indicates a purpose clause (“to bring…”).

[24:2]  ²⁹ tn Heb “to cause to ascend a lamp continually.”

[24:6]  ³⁰ tn Heb “six of the row.”

[24:7]  ³¹ tn This is not just any “incense” (קְטֹרֶת, qÿtoret; R. E. Averbeck, NIDOTTE 3:913-16), but specifically “frankincense” (לְבֹנָה, lÿvonah; R. E. Averbeck, NIDOTTE 2:756-57).

[24:7]  ³² tn Heb “on [עַל, ’al] the row,” probably used distributively, “on each row” (J. E. Hartley, Leviticus [WBC], 395-96). Perhaps the frankincense was placed “with” or “along side of” each row, not actually on the bread itself, and was actually burned as incense to the Lord (cf. NIV “Along [Alongside CEV] each row”; NRSV “with each row”; NLT “near each row”; B. A. Levine, Leviticus [JPSTC], 165). This particular preposition can have such a meaning.

[24:7]  ³³ sn The “memorial portion” (אַזְכָרָה, ’azkharah) was normally the part of the grain offering that was burnt on the altar (see Lev 2:2 and the notes there), as opposed to the remainder, which was normally consumed by the priests (Lev 2:3; see the full regulations in Lev 6:14-23 [6:7-16 HT]).

[24:7]  ³⁴ sn See the note on Lev 1:9 regarding the term “gift.”

[24:8]  ³⁵ tn Heb “In the day of the Sabbath, in the day of the Sabbath.” The repetition is distributive. A few medieval Hebrew mss, the LXX, and the Syriac delete the second occurrence of the expression.

[24:8]  ³⁶ tn Heb “he”; the referent (Aaron) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[24:8]  ³⁷ tn The word “portion” is supplied in the translation here for clarity, to specify what “this” refers to.

[25:15]  ³⁸ tn Heb “in the number of years after.”

[25:15]  ³⁹ tn The words “that are left” are not in the Hebrew text, but are implied.

[25:15]  sn The purchaser is actually buying only the crops that the land will produce until the next jubilee, since the land will revert to the original owner at that time. The purchaser, therefore, is not actually buying the land itself.

[27:15]  ⁴⁰ tn Heb “and it shall be to him.”
