NET Notes: Lev 25:14

¹ tn Heb “sell a sale.”

² tn Or “to one of your countrymen” (NIV); NASB “to your friend.”

³ tn The Hebrew infinitive absolute קָנֹה (qanoh, “buying”) substitutes for the finite verb here in sequence with the previous finite verb “sell” at the beginning of the verse (see GKC 345 §113.z).

⁴ tn Heb “do not oppress a man his brother.” Here “brother” does not refer only to a sibling, but to a fellow Israelite.
