1 tn Heb “or if he touches uncleanness of mankind to any of his uncleanness which he becomes unclean in it.”
2 tn Heb “he.” The subject (“he”) refers to the priest here, not the offerer who presented the birds to the priest (cf. v. 8a).
3 sn The action seems to involve both a twisting action, breaking the neck of the bird and severing its vertebrae, as well as pinching or nipping the skin, but in this case not severing the head from the main body (note the rest of this verse).
4 tn Heb “he shall not divide [it]” (see J. Milgrom, Leviticus [AB], 1:305).
5 tn Heb “burned with fire,” an expression which is sometimes redundant in English, but here means “burned up,” “burned up entirely.”
6 tn Heb “carcass,” referring to the carcass of an animal that has died on its own, not the carcass of an animal slaughtered for sacrifice or killed by wild beasts. This has been clarified in the translation by supplying the phrase “of natural causes”; cf. NAB, TEV “that has died a natural death.”
7 tn Heb “shall be used for any work”; cf. NIV, NLT “may be used for any other purpose.”
8 sn This is the very same male goat offered in Lev 9:15 (cf. the note on Lev 10:1 above).
9 tn Heb “but behold, it had been burnt” (KJV and NASB both similar).
10 tn Heb “to all” (cf. the note on v. 24). This and the following verses develop more fully the categories of uncleanness set forth in principle in vv. 24-25.
11 tn Heb “divides hoof and cleft it does not cleave”; KJV “divideth the hoof, and is not clovenfooted”; NLT “divided but unsplit hooves.”
12 tn See the note on Lev 11:3.
13 sn Compare the regulations in Lev 11:2-8.
14 tn The shaving is done by the one who has the infection. Although KJV, ASV have the passive “he shall be shaven” here, most modern English versions have the reflexive “shall shave himself” (so NAB).
15 tn Heb “but the scall shall he not shave” (so KJV, ASV); NIV “except for the diseased area.”
16 tn Heb “and the priest will shut up the scall a second seven days.”
17 tn Heb “And if the priest sees and behold”; NASB “and indeed.”
18 tn Heb “And if the priest saw and behold….”
19 tn Heb “and he shall tear it from.”
20 tn Heb “and the infection turns aside from them.”
21 tn Heb “the one cleansing himself” (i.e., Hitpael participle of טָהֵר [taher, “to be clean”]).
22 tn Heb “and he shall be clean” (so ASV). The end result of the ritual procedures in vv. 4-7 and the washing and shaving in v. 8a is that the formerly diseased person has now officially become clean in the sense that he can reenter the community (see v. 8b; contrast living outside the community as an unclean diseased person, Lev 13:46). There are, however, further cleansing rituals and pronouncements for him to undergo in the tabernacle as outlined in vv. 10-20 (see Qal “be[come] clean” in vv. 9 and 20, Piel “pronounce clean” in v. 11, and Hitpael “the one being cleansed” in vv. 11, 14, 17, 18, and 19). Obviously, in order to enter the tabernacle he must already “be clean” in the sense of having access to the community.
23 tn The LXX has “he shall stand it” (cf. v. 7).
24 tn Heb “to make atonement on it to send it away to Azazel toward the wilderness.”
25 sn See the note on Lev 16:2 for the rendering “veil-canopy.”
26 tn Heb “And.” The Hebrew conjunction ו (vav, “and”) can be considered to have resultative force here.
27 tn Heb “and a priest, if he buys a person, the property of his silver.”
28 tn Heb “he”; the referent (the person whom the priest has purchased) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
29 tn Heb “eat it”; the referent (the holy offerings) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
30 tn Heb “his”; the referent (the priest) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
31 tn Heb “and the [slave] born of his house, they shall eat in his food.” The LXX, Syriac, Tg. Onq., Tg. Ps.-J., and some
32 tn Heb “And an ox.”
33 tn Heb “and stunted” (see HALOT 1102 s.v. I קלט).
34 sn The freewill offering was voluntary, so the regulations regarding it were more relaxed. Once a vow was made, the paying of it was not voluntary (see B. A. Levine, Leviticus [JPSTC], 151-52, for very helpful remarks on this verse).
35 tn The words “the care of” are not in the Hebrew text, but are implied. Although many modern English versions render “with its mother” (e.g., NAB, NASB, NIV, NRSV, NLT), the literal phrase “under its mother” refers to the young animal nursing from its mother. Cf. KJV, ASV “it shall be seven days under the dam,” which would probably be misunderstood.
36 tn Heb “for an offering of a gift.”
37 tn Heb “and in the seventh year a Sabbath of complete rest shall be to the land.” The expression “a Sabbath of complete rest” is superlative, emphasizing the full and all inclusive rest of the seventh year of the sabbatical cycle. Cf. ASV “a sabbath of solemn rest”; NAB “a complete rest.”
38 tn Heb “and.” Here the Hebrew conjunction ו (vav, “and”) has an alternative sense (“or”).
39 tn Heb “And if.” The Hebrew conjunction ו (vav, “and”) can be considered to have adversative force here.
40 tn Heb “the silver.”
41 tn Heb “And if.”
42 tn Heb “in” or “by.”
