1 tn Heb “which water comes on it.”
2 tn Heb “any drink which may be drunk”; NASB “any liquid which may be drunk”; NLT “any beverage that is in such an unclean container.”
3 tn This half of the verse assumes that the unclean carcass has fallen into the food or drink (cf. v. 33 and also vv. 35-38).
4 tn Heb “a spring and a cistern collection of water”; NAB, NIV “for collecting water.”
5 sn The Hebrew term translated “law” (תוֹרָה, torah) introduces here a summary or colophon for all of Lev 11. Similar summaries are found in Lev 7:37-38; 13:59; 14:54-57; and 15:32-33.
6 tn Heb “for all the creatures.”
7 tn Heb “And the one who touches in the flesh.” In this instance, “flesh” (or “body”) probably refers literally to any part of the body, not the genitals specifically (see the discussion in J. Milgrom, Leviticus [AB], 1:914).
8 tn Heb “And if the man with a discharge spits in the clean one.”
9 tn The Hebrew term כְּלִי (kÿli) can mean “vessel” (v. 12a) or “utensil, implement, article” (v. 12b). An article of clay would refer to a vessel or container of some sort, while one made of wood would refer to some kind of tool or instrument.
10 tn Heb “And a woman who a man lies with her a lying of seed.”
11 tn See the note on v. 5 above.
12 tn For “Azazel” see the note on v. 8 above.
13 sn The phrase “any of these” refers back to the unclean things touched in vv. 4b-5.
