1 tn Heb “the sale of his brother.”
2 tn Heb “and.” The Hebrew conjunction ו (vav, “and”) can be considered to have adversative force here.
3 tn Heb “may go out from you.”
4 tn Heb “fathers.”
5 tn Heb “When it goes out” (cf. Lev 25:25-34).
6 tn Heb “like the field of the permanent dedication.” The Hebrew word חֵרֶם (kherem) is a much discussed term. In this and the following verses it refers in a general way to the fact that something is permanently devoted to the Lord and therefore cannot be redeemed (cf. v. 20b). See J. A. Naudé, NIDOTTE 2:276-77; N. Lohfink, TDOT 5:180-99, esp. pp. 184, 188, and 198-99; and the numerous explanations in J. E. Hartley, Leviticus (WBC), 483-85.
7 tn Heb “to the priest it shall be his property.”
