Leviticus 17:13

Leviticus 20:2

20:2 “You are to say to the Israelites, ‘Any man from the Israelites or from the foreigners who reside in Israel ⁶  who gives any of his children ⁷  to Molech ⁸  must be put to death; the people of the land must pelt him with stones. ⁹ 

¹ tc A few medieval Hebrew mss, Smr, and Tg. Ps.-J. have “from the house of Israel” as in vv. 3, 8, and 10, but the LXX agrees with the MT.

² tn Heb “from the sojourner who sojourns.”

³ tc The LXX, Syriac, Vulgate, and certain mss of Smr have “your” (plural) rather than “their” (cf. v. 10 above).

⁴ tn Heb “[wild] game of animal.”

⁵ tn That is, it must be a clean animal, not an unclean animal (cf. Lev 11).

⁶ tn Heb “or from the sojourner who sojourns”; NAB “an alien residing in Israel.”

⁷ tn Heb “his seed” (so KJV, ASV); likewise in vv. 3-4.

⁸ tn Regarding Molech and Molech worship see the note on Lev 18:21.

⁹ tn This is not the most frequently-used Hebrew verb for stoning (see instead סָקַל, saqal), but a word that refers to the action of throwing, slinging, or pelting someone with stones (רָגָם, ragam; see HALOT 1187 s.v. רגם qal.a, and B. A. Levine, Leviticus [JPSTC], 136).
