Leviticus 14:10

Context
The Eighth Day Atonement Rituals

14:10 “On the eighth day he 3  must take two flawless male lambs, one flawless yearling female lamb, three-tenths of an ephah of choice wheat flour as a grain offering mixed with olive oil, 4  and one log of olive oil, 5 

Leviticus 23:18

Context
23:18 Along with the loaves of bread, 6  you must also present seven flawless yearling lambs, 7  one young bull, 8  and two rams. 9  They are to be a burnt offering to the Lord along with their grain offering 10  and drink offerings, a gift of a soothing aroma to the Lord. 11 

1 tn Heb “And you shall make in the day of your waving the sheaf.”

2 tn Heb “a flawless lamb, a son of its year”; KJV “of the first year”; NLT “a year-old male lamb.”

3 tn The subject “he” probably refers to the formerly diseased person in this case (see the notes on Lev 1:5a, 6a, and 9a).

4 tn This term is often rendered “fine flour,” but it refers specifically to wheat as opposed to barley (B. A. Levine, Leviticus [JPSTC], 10) and, although the translation “flour” is used here, it may indicate “grits” rather than finely ground flour (J. Milgrom, Leviticus [AB], 1:179; see the note on Lev 2:1). The unit of measure is most certainly an “ephah” even though it is not stated explicitly (see, e.g., Num 28:5; cf. 15:4, 6, 8), and three-tenths of an ephah would amount to about a gallon, or perhaps one-third of a bushel (J. E. Hartley, Leviticus [WBC], 196; Milgrom, 845). Since the normal amount of flour for a lamb is one-tenth of an ephah (Num 28:4-5; cf. 15:4), three-tenths is about right for the three lambs offered in Lev 14:10-20.

5 tn A “log” (לֹג, log) of oil is about one-sixth of a liter, or one-third of a pint, or two-thirds of a cup.

6 tn Heb “And you shall present on the bread.”

7 tn Heb “seven flawless lambs, sons of a year.”

8 tn Heb “and one bull, a son of a herd.”

9 tc Smr and LXX add “flawless.”

10 tn Heb “and their grain offering.”

11 sn See the note on Lev 1:9.
