Imamat 4:31

4:31 Then he must remove all of its fat (just as fat was removed from the peace offering sacrifice) and the priest must offer it up in smoke on the altar for a soothing aroma to the Lord. So the priest will make atonement ¹  on his behalf and he will be forgiven. ² 

Imamat 4:35

4:35 Then the one who brought the offering ³  must remove all its fat (just as the fat of the sheep is removed from the peace offering sacrifice) and the priest must offer them up in smoke on the altar on top of the other gifts of the Lord. So the priest will make atonement ⁴  on his behalf for his sin which he has committed and he will be forgiven. ⁵ 

Imamat 5:11

5:11 “‘If he cannot afford ⁶  two turtledoves or two young pigeons, ⁷  he must bring as his offering for his sin which he has committed ⁸  a tenth of an ephah ⁹  of choice wheat flour ¹⁰  for a sin offering. He must not place olive oil on it and he must not put frankincense on it, because it is a sin offering.

Imamat 22:3

22:3 Say to them, ‘Throughout your generations, ¹¹  if any man from all your descendants approaches the holy offerings which the Israelites consecrate ¹²  to the Lord while he is impure, ¹³  that person must be cut off from before me. ¹⁴  I am the Lord.

Imamat 22:13

22:13 but if a priest’s daughter is a widow or divorced, and she has no children so that she returns to live in ¹⁵  her father’s house as in her youth, ¹⁶  she may eat from her father’s food, but no lay person may eat it.

Imamat 25:47

25:47 “‘If a resident foreigner who is with you prospers ¹⁷  and your brother becomes impoverished with regard to him so that ¹⁸  he sells himself to a resident foreigner who is with you or to a member ¹⁹  of a foreigner’s family,

Imamat 26:43

26:43 The land will be abandoned by them ²⁰  in order that it may make up for ²¹  its Sabbaths while it is made desolate ²²  without them, ²³  and they will make up for their iniquity because ²⁴  they have rejected my regulations and have abhorred ²⁵  my statutes.

[4:31]  ¹ sn The focus of sin offering “atonement” was purging impurities from the tabernacle (see the note on Lev 1:4).

[4:31]  ² tn Heb “there shall be forgiveness to him” or “it shall be forgiven to him” (KJV similar).

[4:35]  ³ tn Heb “Then he”; the referent has been specified in the translation for clarity. Here “he” refers to the offerer rather than the priest (contrast the clauses before and after).

[4:35]  ⁴ sn The focus of sin offering “atonement” was purging impurities from the tabernacle (see the note on Lev 1:4).

[4:35]  ⁵ tn Heb “there shall be forgiveness to him” or “it shall be forgiven to him” (KJV similar).

[5:11]  ⁶ tn Heb “and if his hand does not reach [or is not sufficient] to”; cf. NASB “if his means are insufficient for.” The expression is the same as that in Lev 5:7 above except for the verb: נָשַׂג (nasag, “to collect, to reach, to be sufficient”) is used here, but נָגַע (nagah, “to touch, to reach”) is used in v. 7. Smr has the former in both v. 7 and 11.

[5:11]  ⁷ tn See the note on Lev 1:14 above (cf. also 5:7).

[5:11]  ⁸ tn Heb “and he shall bring his offering which he sinned.” Like the similar expression in v. 7 above (see the note there), this is an abbreviated form of Lev 5:6, “and he shall bring his [penalty for] guilt to the Lord for his sin which he committed.” Here the words “to the Lord for his sin” have been left out, and “his [penalty for] guilt” has been changed to “his offering.”

[5:11]  ⁹ sn A tenth of an ephah would be about 2.3 liters, one day’s ration for a single person (J. Milgrom, Leviticus [AB], 1:306). English versions handle the amount somewhat differently, cf. NCV “about two quarts”; TEV “one kilogramme”; CEV “two pounds.”

[5:11]  ¹⁰ tn See the note on Lev 2:1 above.

[22:3]  ¹¹ tn Heb “To your generations.”

[22:3]  ¹² tn The Piel (v. 2) and Hiphil (v. 3) forms of the verb קָדַשׁ (qadash) appear to be interchangeable in this context. Both mean “to consecrate” (Heb “make holy [or “sacred”]”).

[22:3]  ¹³ tn Heb “and his impurity [is] on him”; NIV “is ceremonially unclean”; NAB, NRSV “while he is in a state of uncleanness.”

[22:3]  ¹⁴ sn Regarding the “cut off” penalty, see the note on Lev 7:20. Cf. the interpretive translation of TEV “he can never again serve at the altar.”

[22:13]  ¹⁵ tn Heb “to”; the words “live in” have been supplied in the translation for clarity.

[22:13]  ¹⁶ tn Heb “and seed there is not to her and she returns to the house of her father as her youth.” The mention of having “no children” appears to imply that her children, if she had any, should support her; this is made explicit by NLT’s “and has no children to support her.”

[25:47]  ¹⁷ tn Heb “And if the hand of a foreigner and resident with you reaches” (cf. v. 26 for this idiom).

[25:47]  ¹⁸ tn Heb “and.” The Hebrew conjunction ו (vav, “and”) can be considered to have resultative force here.

[25:47]  ¹⁹ tn Heb “offshoot, descendant.”

[26:43]  ²⁰ tn Heb “from them.” The preposition “from” refers here to the agent of the action (J. E. Hartley, Leviticus [WBC], 455).

[26:43]  ²¹ tn The jussive form of the verb with the simple vav (ו) here calls for a translation that expresses purpose.

[26:43]  ²² tn The verb is the Hophal infinitive construct with the third feminine singular suffix (GKC 182 §67.y; cf. v. 34).

[26:43]  ²³ tn Heb “from them.”

[26:43]  ²⁴ tn Heb “because and in because,” a double expression, which is used only here and in Ezek 13:10 (without the vav) for emphasis (GKC 492 §158.b).

[26:43]  ²⁵ tn Heb “and their soul has abhorred.”
