Leviticus 20:4

Context
20:4 If, however, the people of the land shut their eyes 1  to that man 2  when he gives some of his children to Molech so that they do not put him to death,

Leviticus 27:9

Context
Redemption of Vowed Animals

27:9 “‘If what is vowed is a kind of animal from which an offering may be presented 3  to the Lord, anything which he gives to the Lord from this kind of animal 4  will be holy.

1 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.

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

3 tn Heb “which they may present from it an offering.” The plural active verb is sometimes best rendered in the passive (GKC 460 §144.f, g). Some medieval Hebrew mss, Smr, a ms of the Targum, and the Vulgate all have the singular verb instead (cf. similarly v. 11).

4 tn Heb “from it.” The masculine suffix “it” here is used for the feminine in the MT, but one medieval Hebrew ms, some mss of Smr, the LXX, and the Syriac have the feminine. The referent (this kind of animal) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
