Leviticus 26:43

Context
26:43 The land will be abandoned by them 1  in order that it may make up for 2  its Sabbaths while it is made desolate 3  without them, 4  and they will make up for their iniquity because 5  they have rejected my regulations and have abhorred 6  my statutes.

1 tn Heb “from them.” The preposition “from” refers here to the agent of the action (J. E. Hartley, Leviticus [WBC], 455).

2 tn The jussive form of the verb with the simple vav (ו) here calls for a translation that expresses purpose.

3 tn The verb is the Hophal infinitive construct with the third feminine singular suffix (GKC 182 §67.y; cf. v. 34).

4 tn Heb “from them.”

5 tn Heb “because and in because,” a double expression, which is used only here and in Ezek 13:10 (without the vav) for emphasis (GKC 492 §158.b).

6 tn Heb “and their soul has abhorred.”
