Leviticus 17:7

17:7 So they must no longer offer their sacrifices to the goat demons, acting like prostitutes by going after them. This is to be a perpetual statute for them throughout their generations.


tn Heb “sacrifice.” This has been translated as “offer” for stylistic reasons to avoid the redundancy of “sacrifice their sacrifices.”

tn On “goat demons” of the desert regions see the note on Lev 16:8.

tn Heb “which they are committing harlotry after them.”

tn Heb “for your generations.”
