16:1 The Lord spoke to Moses after the death of Aaron’s two sons when they approached the presence of the Lord ⁴  and died,

Leviticus 20:5

20:5 I myself will set my face against that man and his clan. I will cut off from the midst of their people both him and all who follow after him in spiritual prostitution, ⁵  to commit prostitution by worshiping Molech. ⁶ 

Leviticus 13:55-56

13:55 The priest must then examine it after the infection has been washed out, and if ⁷  the infection has not changed its appearance ⁸  even though the infection has not spread, it is unclean. You must burn it up in the fire. It is a fungus, whether on the back side or front side of the article. ⁹  13:56 But if the priest has examined it and ¹⁰  the infection has faded after it has been washed, he is to tear it out of ¹¹  the garment or the leather or the warp or the woof.

Leviticus 14:48

14:48 “If, however, the priest enters ¹²  and examines it, and the ¹³  infection has not spread in the house after the house has been replastered, then the priest is to pronounce the house clean because the infection has been healed.

¹ tn Heb “And if spreading (infinitive absolute) it spreads further (finite verb).” For the infinitive absolute used to highlight contrast rather than emphasis see GKC 343 §113.p.

² tn Heb “right of redemption shall be to him.”

³ tn Heb “And if spreading [infinitive absolute] it spreads [finite verb].” For the infinitive absolute used to highlight contrast rather than emphasis see GKC 343 §113.p.

⁴ tn Heb “in their drawing near to the faces of the Lord.” The rendering here relies on the use of this expression for the very “presence” of God in Exod 33:14-15 and in the Lev 9:24-10:2 passage, where the Nadab and Abihu catastrophe referred to here is narrated.

⁵ tn The adjective “spiritual” has been supplied in the translation to clarify that this is not a reference to literal prostitution, but figuratively compares idolatry to prostitution.

⁶ tn Heb “to commit harlotry after Molech.” The translation employs “worshiping” here for clarity (cf. NAB, NCV, TEV, CEV, NLT). On the “cut off” penalty see the note on Lev 7:20.

⁶ tn Heb “and behold” (so KJV, ASV).

⁷ tn Heb “the infection has not changed its eye.” Smr has “its/his eyes,” as in vv. 5 and 37, but here it refers to the appearance of the article of cloth or leather, unlike vv. 5 and 37 where there is a preposition attached and it refers to the eyes of the priest.

⁸ tn The terms “back side” and “front side” are the same as those used in v. 42 for the “back or front bald area” of a man’s head. The exact meaning of these terms when applied to articles of cloth or leather is uncertain. It could refer, for example, to the inside versus the outside of a garment, or the back versus the front side of an article of cloth or leather. See J. Milgrom, Leviticus (AB), 1:814, for various possibilities.

⁷ tn Heb “And if the priest saw and behold….”

⁸ tn Heb “and he shall tear it from.”

⁸ tn Heb “And if the priest entering [infinitive absolute] enters [finite verb]” For the infinitive absolute used to highlight contrast rather than emphasis see GKC 343 §113.p.

⁹ tn Heb “and behold” (so KJV, ASV); NASB “and the mark has not indeed spread.”
