Hartley, Leviticus [WBC], 452), and the other meaning “to restore” (HALOT 1281-82 s.v. II רצה; cf. NAB “retrieve” and B. A. Levine, Leviticus [JPSTC], 189).
2 tn Heb “and.” The Hebrew conjunction ו (vav, “and”) is used in a concessive sense here.
3 tn The term rendered “to stand up” is a noun, not an infinitive. It occurs only here and appears to designate someone who would take a powerful stand for them against their enemies.
4 tn Heb “in” (so KJV, ASV; also later in this verse).
5 tn Heb “fathers’” (also in the following verse).
6 tn Heb “or then,” although the LXX has “then” and the Syriac “and then.”
7 tn Heb “and then they make up for.” On the verb “make up for” see the note on v. 34 above.
