Deuteronomy 17:1

Context
17:1 You must not sacrifice to him 4  a bull or sheep that has a blemish or any other defect, because that is considered offensive 5  to the Lord your God.

1 tn Heb “any evil blemish”; NASB “any (+ other NAB, TEV) serious defect.”

2 tn Heb “sacrifice the Passover” (so NASB). The word “animal” has been supplied in the translation for clarity.

3 tn Heb “the Lord.” See note on “he” in the previous verse.

4 tn Heb “to the Lord your God.” See note on “he” in 16:1.
