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 sn See the note on this phrase in 3:3.
4 tn The words “This is” are not in the Hebrew text, but are supplied due to requirements of English style.
5 tn Heb “for your generations”; NAB “for your descendants”; NLT “for you and all your descendants.”
6 tn Heb “all fat and all blood you must not eat.”
