[27:5]  ¹ tn The verb is the verb “to be,” here the perfect tense with vav (ו) consecutive. It is “and it will be” or “that it may be,” or here “that it may come” halfway up.

[27:5]  ² tn Heb “to the half of the altar.”

[26:24]  ³ tn Heb “they will be for the two corners.” This is the last clause of the verse, moved forward for clarity.

[28:27]  ⁵ tn Here “more” has been supplied.

[36:29]  ⁸ tn This difficult verse uses the perfect tense at the beginning, and the second clause parallels it with יִהְיוּ (yihyu), which has to be taken here as a preterite without the consecutive vav (ו). The predicate “finished” or “completed” is the word תָּמִּים (tammim); it normally means “complete, sound, whole,” and related words describe the sacrifices as without blemish.
