[7:25]  1 tn The Hebrew word תּוֹעֵבָה (toevah, “abhorrent; detestable”) describes anything detestable to the Lord because of its innate evil or inconsistency with his own nature and character. Frequently such things (or even persons) must be condemned to annihilation (חֵרֶם, kherem) lest they become a means of polluting or contaminating others (cf. Deut 13:17; 20:17-18). See M. Grisanti, NIDOTTE 4:315.

[18:27]  2 tn Heb “for all these abominations the men of the land who were before you have done.”

[23:13]  3 sn See the note on Lev 5:11.

[23:13]  4 sn See the note on Lev 2:1.

[23:13]  5 sn See the note on Lev 1:9.

[23:13]  6 tn Heb “wine, one fourth of the hin.” A pre-exilic hin is about 3.6 liters (= ca. 1 quart), so one fourth of a hin would be about one cup.
