Leviticus 20:4

If, however, the people of the land shut their eyes ¹  to that man ²  when he gives some of his children to Molech so that they do not put him to death,

De 13:8; De 17:2-5; Jos 7:12; 1Sa 3:13,14; 1Ki 20:42; Ac 17:30; Re 2:14

¹ tn Heb “And if shutting [infinitive absolute] they shut [finite verb].” For the infinitive absolute used to highlight contrast rather than emphasis see GKC 343 §113.p.

² tn Heb “from that man” (so ASV); NASB “disregard that man.”
