Leviticus 18:24-25

Context
Warning against the Abominations of the Nations

18:24 “‘Do not defile yourselves with any of these things, for the nations which I am about to drive out before you 1  have been defiled with all these things. 18:25 Therefore 2  the land has become unclean and I have brought the punishment for its iniquity upon it, 3  so that the land has vomited out its inhabitants.

1 tn Heb “which I am sending away (Piel participle of שָׁלַח [shalakh, “to send”]) from your faces.” The rendering here takes the participle as anticipatory of the coming conquest events.

2 tn Heb “And.” The Hebrew conjunction ו (vav, “and”) can be considered to have resultative or even inferential force here.

3 tn Heb “and I have visited its [punishment for] iniquity on it.” See the note on Lev 17:16 above.
