1 tn Heb “from upon your grain offering.”
2 tc Here and with the same phrase in v. 26, the LXX adds “all,” resulting in the reading “all the peoples.”
3 tn Or “shall approach” (see HALOT 670 s.v. נגשׁ).
4 tn Heb “And when you harvest the harvest.”
5 tn Heb “you shall not complete the corner of your field in your harvest.”
6 sn Compare Lev 19:9-10.
7 sn For the literature regarding the difficult etymology and meaning of the term for “idols” (אֱלִילִם, ’elilim), see the literature cited in the note on Lev 19:4. It appears to be a diminutive play on words with אֵל (’el, “god, God”) and, perhaps at the same time, recalls a common Semitic word for “worthless, weak, powerless, nothingness.” Snaith suggests a rendering of “worthless godlings.”
8 tn Heb “on.” The “sculpted stone” appears to be some sort of stone with images carved into (see B. A. Levine, Leviticus [JPSTC], 181, and J. E. Hartley, Leviticus [WBC], 449).
