Leviticus 1:17

1:17 and tear it open by its wings without dividing it into two parts. ¹  Finally, the priest must offer it up in smoke on the altar on the wood which is in the fire – it is a burnt offering, a gift of a soothing aroma to the Lord.

Leviticus 13:56

13:56 But if the priest has examined it and ²  the infection has faded after it has been washed, he is to tear it out of ³  the garment or the leather or the warp or the woof.

¹ tn Heb “he shall not divide it.” Several Hebrew mss, Smr, LXX, and Syriac have a vav on the negative, yielding the translation, “but he shall not divide it into two parts.” Cf. NIV “not severing it completely” (NRSV similar).

² tn Heb “And if the priest saw and behold….”

³ tn Heb “and he shall tear it from.”
