NET Notes: Lev 20:22

¹ tn Heb “And you shall keep all my statutes and all my regulations and you shall do them.” This appears to be a kind of verbal hendiadys, where the first verb is a modifier of the action of the second verb (see GKC 386 §120.d, although שָׁמַר [shamar, “to keep”] is not cited there; cf. Lev 22:31, etc.).

² tn Heb “and.” The Hebrew conjunction ו (vav, “and”) can be considered to have resultative force here.
