Leviticus 25:37
Context25:37 You must not lend him your money at interest and you must not sell him food for profit. 3
1 tn Heb “its produce,” but the feminine pronoun “its” probably refers to the “land” (a feminine noun in Hebrew; cf. v. 2), not the “field” or the “vineyard,” both of which are normally masculine nouns (see B. A. Levine, Leviticus [JPSTC], 170).
2 tn Heb “consecrated, devoted, forbidden” (נָזִיר, nazir). The same term is used for the “consecration” of the “Nazirite” (and his hair, Num 6:2, 18, etc.), a designation which, in turn, derives from the very same root.
3 tn Heb “your money” and “your food.” With regard to “interest” and “profit” see the note on v. 36 above.
