Leviticus 14:22-23

Context
14:22 and two turtledoves or two young pigeons, 1  which are within his means. 2  One will be a sin offering and the other a burnt offering. 3 

14:23 “On the eighth day he must bring them for his purification to the priest at the entrance 4  of the Meeting Tent before the Lord,

Leviticus 14:31

Context
14:31 a sin offering and the other a burnt offering along with the grain offering. 5  So the priest is to make atonement for the one being cleansed before the Lord.

1 tn Heb “from the sons of the pigeon,” referring either to “young pigeons” or “various species of pigeon” (contrast J. Milgrom, Leviticus [AB], 1:168 with J. E. Hartley, Leviticus [WBC], 14; cf. Lev 1:14 and esp. 5:7-10).

2 tn Heb “which his hand reaches”; NRSV “such as (which NIV) he can afford.”

3 tn Heb “and one shall be a sin offering and the one a burnt offering.” The versions struggle with whether or not “one” should or should not have the definite article in its two occurrences in this verse (KJV, ASV, NAB, NASB all have the English definite article with both). The MT has the first without and the second with the article.

4 tn Heb “to the doorway of”; KJV, ASV “unto the door of.”

5 tn Heb “and the one a burnt offering on the grain offering.”
