Imamat 6:12

6:12 but the fire which is on the altar must be kept burning on it. ³  It must not be extinguished. So the priest must kindle wood on it morning by morning, and he must arrange the burnt offering on it and offer the fat of the peace offering up in smoke on it.

Imamat 12:8

Imamat 14:36

14:36 Then the priest will command that the house be cleared ⁹  before the priest enters to examine the infection ¹⁰  so that everything in the house ¹¹  does not become unclean, ¹²  and afterward ¹³  the priest will enter to examine the house.

[6:9]  ¹ tn Heb “It is the burnt offering on the hearth.”

[6:9]  ² tn Heb “in it.” In this context “in it” apparently refers to the “hearth” which was on top of the altar.

[6:12]  ³ tn Heb “in it,” apparently referring to the “hearth” which was on top of the altar (cf. the note on v. 9).

[12:8]  ⁴ tn Heb “If her hand cannot find the sufficiency of a sheep.” Many English versions render this as “lamb.”

[12:8]  ⁵ tn Heb “from the sons of the pigeon,” referring either to “young pigeons” or “various species of pigeon” (contrast J. Milgrom, Leviticus [AB], 1:168, with J. E. Hartley, Leviticus [WBC], 14; cf. Lev 1:14 and esp. 5:7-10).

[12:8]  ⁶ tn Or “she will be[come] pure.”

[14:17]  ⁷ tn Heb “on his hand.”

[14:28]  ⁸ tn Heb “on his hand.”

[14:36]  ⁹ tn Heb “And the priest shall command and they shall clear the house.” The second verb (“and they shall clear”) states the thrust of the priest’s command, which suggests the translation “that they clear” (cf. also vv. 4a and 5a above), and for the impersonal passive rendering of the active verb (“that the house be cleared”) see the note on v. 4 above.

[14:36]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “to see the infection”; KJV “to see the plague”; NASB “to look at the mark (mildew NCV).”

[14:36]  ¹¹ tn Heb “all which [is] in the house.”

[14:36]  ¹² sn Once the priest pronounced the house “unclean” everything in it was also officially unclean. Therefore, if they emptied the house of its furniture, etc. before the official pronouncement by the priest those possessions would thereby remain officially “clean” and avoid destruction or purification procedures.

[14:36]  ¹³ tn Heb “and after thus.”

[16:27]  ¹⁴ tn Heb “he shall bring into from outside to the camp.”

[16:27]  ¹⁵ tn Heb “they shall burn with fire”; KJV “burn in the fire.” Because “to burn with fire” is redundant in contemporary English the present translation simply has “must be burned up.”

[18:19]  ¹⁶ tn Heb “in the menstruation of her impurity”; NIV “during the uncleanness of her monthly period.”

[23:36]  ¹⁷ tn The Hebrew term עֲצֶרֶת (’atseret) “solemn assembly [day]” derives from a root associated with restraint or closure. It could refer either to the last day as “closing assembly” day of the festival (e.g., NIV) or a special day of restraint expressed in a “solemn assembly” (e.g., NRSV); cf. NLT “a solemn closing assembly.”
