Leviticus 22:11

22:11 but if a priest buys a person with his own money, 1  that person 2  may eat the holy offerings, 3  and those born in the priest’s 4  own house may eat his food. 5 

1 tn Heb “and a priest, if he buys a person, the property of his silver.”

2 tn Heb “he”; the referent (the person whom the priest has purchased) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

3 tn Heb “eat it”; the referent (the holy offerings) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

4 tn Heb “his”; the referent (the priest) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

5 tn Heb “and the [slave] born of his house, they shall eat in his food.” The LXX, Syriac, Tg. Onq., Tg. Ps.-J., and some mss of Smr have plural “ones born,” which matches the following plural “they” pronoun and the plural form of the verb.
