¹ tn See the note on v. 20 above.

² tn Heb “to copulate with it” (cf. Lev 20:16).

³ tn The Hebrew term תֶּבֶל (tevel, “perversion”) derives from the verb “to mix; to confuse” and therefore refers to illegitimate mixtures of species or violation of the natural order of things.

⁴ tn Heb “And.” The Hebrew conjunction ו (vav, “and”) can be considered to have resultative or even inferential force here.

⁵ tn Heb “and I have visited its [punishment for] iniquity on it.” See the note on Lev 17:16 above.

⁶ tn See the note on Lev 18:20 above.

⁷ tn Heb “to copulate with it” (cf. Lev 20:16).

⁸ tn Heb “lies with any animal” (so NASB, NRSV). “To lie with” is a Hebrew euphemism for having sexual relations with someone (or in this case, some animal).
