14:30 “He will then make one of the turtledoves ¹  or young pigeons, which are within his means, ² 

Leviticus 14:32

14:32 This is the law of the one in whom there is a diseased infection, ³  who does not have sufficient means for his purification.” ⁴ 

Leviticus 14:22

14:22 and two turtledoves or two young pigeons, ⁵  which are within his means. ⁶  One will be a sin offering and the other a burnt offering. ⁷ 

Leviticus 14:31

Leviticus 25:47

25:47 “‘If a resident foreigner who is with you prospers ⁹  and your brother becomes impoverished with regard to him so that ¹⁰  he sells himself to a resident foreigner who is with you or to a member ¹¹  of a foreigner’s family,

Leviticus 27:8

27:8 If he is too poor to pay the conversion value, he must stand the person before the priest and the priest will establish his conversion value; ¹²  according to what the man who made the vow can afford, ¹³  the priest will establish his conversion value.

¹ tn Heb “the one from the turtledoves.”

² tc Heb “from which his hand reaches.” The repetition of virtually the same expression at the beginning of v. 31 in the MT is probably due to dittography (cf. the LXX and Syriac). However, the MT may be retained if it is understood as “one of the turtledoves or young pigeons that are within his means – whichever he can afford” (see J. Milgrom’s translation in Leviticus [AB], 1:828, contra his commentary, 862; cf. REB).

³ tn Heb “This is the law of who in him [is] a diseased infection.”

⁴ tn Heb “who his hand does not reach in his purification”; NASB “whose means are limited for his cleansing”; NIV “who cannot afford the regular offerings for his cleansing.”

⁵ tn Heb “from the sons of the pigeon,” referring either to “young pigeons” or “various species of pigeon” (contrast J. Milgrom, Leviticus [AB], 1:168 with J. E. Hartley, Leviticus [WBC], 14; cf. Lev 1:14 and esp. 5:7-10).

⁶ tn Heb “which his hand reaches”; NRSV “such as (which NIV) he can afford.”

⁷ tn Heb “and one shall be a sin offering and the one a burnt offering.” The versions struggle with whether or not “one” should or should not have the definite article in its two occurrences in this verse (KJV, ASV, NAB, NASB all have the English definite article with both). The MT has the first without and the second with the article.

⁷ tn Heb “and the one a burnt offering on the grain offering.”

⁹ tn Heb “And if the hand of a foreigner and resident with you reaches” (cf. v. 26 for this idiom).

¹⁰ tn Heb “and.” The Hebrew conjunction ו (vav, “and”) can be considered to have resultative force here.

¹¹ tn Heb “offshoot, descendant.”

¹¹ tn Heb “and the priest shall cause him to be valued.”

¹² tn Heb “on the mouth which the hand of the one who vowed reaches.”
