¹ tn The verb is the verb “to be,” here the perfect tense with vav (ו) consecutive. It is “and it will be” or “that it may be,” or here “that it may come” halfway up.

² tn Heb “to the half of the altar.”

³ tn Heb “and [then] they will wash.”

⁴ tn The verb is “it will be.”

⁵ tn Heb “for his seed.”

⁶ tn Or “for generations to come”; it literally is “to their generations.”

⁵ tn Heb “which like it there has never been.”

⁶ tn Heb “and like it it will not add.”

⁷ tc Hebrew has both the objective pronoun “them” and the names “Aaron and his sons.” Neither the LXX nor Leviticus 8:13 has “Aaron and his sons,” suggesting that this may have been a later gloss in the text.

⁸ tn Heb “and you will fill the hand” and so “consecrate” or “ordain.” The verb draws together the individual acts of the process.
