Leviticus 20:14

Context
20:14 If a man has sexual intercourse with both a woman and her mother, 11  it is lewdness. 12  Both he and they must be burned to death, 13  so there is no lewdness in your midst.

1 tn All of v. 11 is a so-called casus pendens (also known as an extraposition or a nominative absolute), which means that it anticipates the next verse, being the full description of “all (the rest of) the bull” (lit. “all the bull”) at the beginning of v. 12 (actually after the first verb of the verse; see the next note below).

2 tn Heb “And he (the offerer) shall bring out all the bull to from outside to the camp to a clean place.”

3 tn Heb “a clean place,” but referring to a place that is ceremonially clean. This has been specified in the translation for clarity.

4 tn Heb “the pouring out [place] of fatty ash.”

5 tn Heb “burn with fire.” This expression is somewhat redundant in English, so the translation collocates “fire” with “wood,” thus “a wood fire.”

6 sn See the note on the word “slaughter” in v. 15.

7 tn Heb “And he shall bring out the bull to from outside to the camp.”

8 tn Heb “burned with fire,” an expression which is sometimes redundant in English, but here means “burned up,” “burned up entirely.”

9 tn The word “ceremonially” has been supplied in the translation both here and in the following sentence to clarify that the uncleanness involved is ritual or ceremonial in nature.

10 tn The Hebrew has simply “the flesh,” but this certainly refers to “clean” flesh in contrast to the unclean flesh in the first half of the verse.

11 tn Heb “And a man who takes a woman and her mother.” The Hebrew verb “to take” in this context means “to engage in sexual intercourse.”

12 tn Regarding “lewdness,” see the note on Lev 18:17 above.

13 tn Heb “in fire they shall burn him and them.” The active plural verb sometimes requires a passive translation (GKC 460 §144.f, g), esp. when no active plural subject has been expressed in the context. The present translation specifies “burned to death” because the traditional rendering “burnt with fire” (KJV, ASV; NASB “burned with fire”) could be understood to mean “branded” or otherwise burned, but not fatally.
