Leviticus 21:6

Context

21:6 “‘They must be holy to their God, and they must not profane 1  the name of their God, because they are the ones who present the Lord’s gifts, 2  the food of their God. Therefore they must be holy. 3 

1 sn Regarding “profane,” see the note on Lev 10:10 above.

2 sn Regarding the Hebrew term for “gifts,” see the note on Lev 1:9 above (cf. also 3:11 and 16 in combination with the word for “food” that follows in the next phrase here).

3 tc Smr and all early versions have the plural adjective “holy” rather than the MT singular noun “holiness.”
