Leviticus 3:3

3:3 Then the one presenting the offering ¹  must present a gift to the Lord from the peace offering sacrifice: He must remove the fat that covers the entrails and all the fat that surrounds the entrails, ² 

Leviticus 13:12-13

13:12 If, however, the disease breaks out ³  on the skin so that the disease covers all the skin of the person with the infection ⁴  from his head to his feet, as far as the priest can see, ⁵  13:13 the priest must then examine it, ⁶  and if ⁷  the disease covers his whole body, he is to pronounce the person with the infection clean. ⁸  He has turned all white, so he is clean. ⁹

¹ tn Heb “Then he”; the referent (the person presenting the offering) has been specified in the translation for clarity (cf. the note on Lev 1:5).

² tn Heb “and all the fat on the entrails.” The fat layer that covers the entrails as a whole (i.e., “that covers the entrails”) is different from the fat that surrounds and adheres to the various organs (“on the entrails,” i.e., surrounding them; J. Milgrom, Leviticus [AB], 1:205-7).

³ tn Heb “And if spreading [infinitive absolute] it spreads out [finite verb].” For the infinitive absolute used to highlight contrast rather than emphasis see GKC 343 §113.p.

⁴ tn Heb “all the skin of the infection,” but see v. 4 above.

⁵ tn Heb “to all the appearance of the eyes of the priest.”

⁶ tn Heb “and the priest shall see.” The pronoun “it” is unexpressed, but it should be assumed and it refers to the infection (cf. the note on v. 8 above).

⁷ tn Heb “and behold” (so KJV, ASV, NASB).

⁸ tn Heb “he shall pronounce the infection clean,” but see v. 4 above. Also, this is another use of the declarative Piel of the verb טָהֵר (taher; cf. the note on v. 6 above).

⁹ tn Heb “all of him has turned white, and he is clean.”
