Leviticus 3:3
Context3:3 Then the one presenting the offering 1 must present a gift to the Lord from the peace offering sacrifice: He must remove the fat that covers the entrails and all the fat that surrounds the entrails, 2
Leviticus 13:12-13
Context13:12 If, however, the disease breaks out 3 on the skin so that the disease covers all the skin of the person with the infection 4 from his head to his feet, as far as the priest can see, 5 13:13 the priest must then examine it, 6 and if 7 the disease covers his whole body, he is to pronounce the person with the infection clean. 8 He has turned all white, so he is clean. 9
1 tn Heb “Then he”; the referent (the person presenting the offering) has been specified in the translation for clarity (cf. the note on Lev 1:5).
2 tn Heb “and all the fat on the entrails.” The fat layer that covers the entrails as a whole (i.e., “that covers the entrails”) is different from the fat that surrounds and adheres to the various organs (“on the entrails,” i.e., surrounding them; J. Milgrom, Leviticus [AB], 1:205-7).
3 tn Heb “And if spreading [infinitive absolute] it spreads out [finite verb].” For the infinitive absolute used to highlight contrast rather than emphasis see GKC 343 §113.p.
4 tn Heb “all the skin of the infection,” but see v. 4 above.
5 tn Heb “to all the appearance of the eyes of the priest.”
6 tn Heb “and the priest shall see.” The pronoun “it” is unexpressed, but it should be assumed and it refers to the infection (cf. the note on v. 8 above).
7 tn Heb “and behold” (so KJV, ASV, NASB).
8 tn Heb “he shall pronounce the infection clean,” but see v. 4 above. Also, this is another use of the declarative Piel of the verb טָהֵר (taher; cf. the note on v. 6 above).
9 tn Heb “all of him has turned white, and he is clean.”
