1 tn Heb “And I, I shall give my faces.”

2 sn On the “cut off” penalty see the notes on Lev 7:20 and 17:4.

3 tn Heb “for the sake of defiling my sanctuary and to profane my holy name.”

4 tn Heb “And if shutting [infinitive absolute] they shut [finite verb].” For the infinitive absolute used to highlight contrast rather than emphasis see GKC 343 §113.p.

5 tn Heb “from that man” (so ASV); NASB “disregard that man.”

6 tn The word “slaves” is not in the Hebrew text, but is implied here.

7 tn Heb “family which is” (i.e., singular rather than plural).

8 tn Heb “and your brothers, the sons of Israel, a man in his brother you shall not rule in him in violence.”

9 tn Heb “the animal of the field.” This collective singular has been translated as a plural. The expression “animal of the field” refers to a wild (i.e., nondomesticated) animal.

10 tn The words “of your children” are not in the Hebrew text, but are implied.

11 tn Heb “and diminish you.”
