1 tn See the remarks on Lev 1:3-5 above for some of the details of translation here.
2 tn See the note on this term at 1:5.
3 tn The LXX has a plural form here and also for the same verb later in the verse. See the note on Lev 1:5a.
4 tn Again, Aaron probably did the slaughtering (cf. the notes on Lev 8:15-16 above).
5 tn Heb “on the lobe of the ear of Aaron, the right one.”
6 tn The term for “big toe” (בֹּהֶן, bohen) is the same as that for “thumb.” It refers to the larger appendage on either the hand or the foot.
7 sn The latter part of the verse (“in addition to the morning burnt offering”) refers to the complex of morning (and evening) burnt and grain offerings that was the daily regulation for the tabernacle from the time of its erection (Exod 40:29). The regulations for it were appended to the end of the section of priestly consecration regulations in Exod 29 (see Exod 29:38-40) precisely because they were to be maintained throughout the priestly consecration period and beyond (Lev 8:33-36). Thus, the morning burnt and grain offerings would already have been placed on the altar before the inaugural burnt and grain offerings referred to here.
8 tn Heb “his right finger from the oil.”
9 tn Heb “and the remainder in the oil.”
10 tn Heb “on the hand.”
11 tn Heb “give.”
