¹ tn Heb “And to the wife of your fellow citizen you shall not give your layer for seed.” The meaning of “your layer” (שְׁכָבְתְּךָ, shÿkhavtÿkha) is uncertain (see B. A. Levine, Leviticus [JPSTC], 122, “you shall not place your layer of semen”; but cf. also J. E. Hartley, Leviticus [WBC], 283, and the literature cited there for the rendering, “you shall not give your penis for seed”).

² tn Heb “your money” and “your food.” With regard to “interest” and “profit” see the note on v. 36 above.

³ tn Heb “You shall not rule in him in violence”; cf. NASB “with severity”; NIV “ruthlessly.”
