Numbers 30:6

Context
Vows Made by Married Women

30:6 “And if she marries a husband while under a vow, 1  or she uttered 2  anything impulsively by which she has pledged herself,

Numbers 30:8

Context
30:8 But if when her husband hears it he overrules her, then he will nullify 3  the vow she has taken, 4  and whatever she uttered impulsively which she has pledged for herself. And the Lord will release her from it.

1 tn Heb “and her vows are upon her.” It may be that the woman gets married while her vows are still unfulfilled.

2 tn The Hebrew text indicates that this would be some impetuous vow that she uttered with her lips, a vow that her husband, whether new or existing, would not approve of. Several translate it “a binding obligation rashly uttered.”

3 tn The verb is the Hiphil perfect with a vav (ו) consecutive from the verb פָּרַר (parar, “to annul”). The verb functions here as the equivalent of an imperfect tense; here it is the apodosis following the conditional clause – if this is the case, then this is what will happen.

4 tn Heb “which [she is] under it.”
