[18:9]  1 tn Heb “the daughter of your father or the daughter of your mother.”

[18:9]  2 tn Heb “born of house or born of outside.” CEV interprets as “whether you grew up together or not” (cf. also TEV, NLT).

[18:9]  3 tc Several medieval Hebrew mss, Smr, LXX, and Syriac have “her nakedness” rather than “their nakedness,” thus agreeing with singular “sister” at the beginning of the verse.

[20:19]  4 tn Heb “his flesh.”

[20:19]  5 tn See the note on Lev 17:16 above.
