Numbers 18:24

Context
18:24 But I have given 1  to the Levites for an inheritance the tithes of the Israelites that are offered 2  to the Lord as a raised offering. That is why I said to them that among the Israelites they are to have no inheritance.”

Numbers 18:29

Context
18:29 From all your gifts you must offer up every raised offering due 3  the Lord, from all the best of it, and the holiest part of it.’ 4 

1 tn The classification of the perfect tense here too could be the perfect of resolve, since this law is declaring what will be their portion – “I have decided to give.”

2 tn In the Hebrew text the verb has no expressed subject (although the “Israelites” is certainly intended), and so it can be rendered as a passive.

3 tn The construction is “every raised offering of the Lord”; the genitive here is probably to be taken as a genitive of worth – the offering that is due the Lord.

4 tn Or “its hallowed thing.”
