[19:13]  ¹ tn Heb “You shall not oppress your neighbor and you shall not rob.”

[19:13]  ² tn Heb “hold back with you”; perhaps “hold back for yourself” (cf. NRSV “keep for yourself”).

[19:15]  ³ tc Smr has the singular rather than the plural “you” of the MT, which brings this verb form into line with the ones surrounding it.

[19:15]  ⁴ tn Heb “You shall not do injustice in judgment” (NASB similar); cf. NIV “do not pervert justice.”

[19:15]  ⁵ tn Heb “You shall not lift up faces of poor [people] and you shall not honor faces of great.”

[19:15]  ⁶ tn Heb “In righteousness you shall judge your fellow citizen.”

[19:19]  ⁵ tn Heb “Your animals, you shall not cross-breed two different kinds.”

[19:19]  ⁶ tn Heb “you shall not cause to go up on you.”

[19:19]  ⁷ sn Cf. Deut 22:11 where the Hebrew term translated “two different kinds” (כִּלְאַיִם, kil’ayim) refers to a mixture of linen and wool woven together in a garment.

[25:11]  ⁷ tn Heb “you shall not sow and you shall not…and you shall not….”

[27:33]  ⁹ tn Heb “he”; the referent (the owner of the animal) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[27:33]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “And if exchanging [infinitive absolute] he exchanges it [finite verb].” For the infinitive absolute used to highlight contrast rather than emphasis see GKC 343 §113.p.

[27:33]  ¹¹ tn Heb “it and its substitute.” The referent (the original animal offered) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[27:33]  ¹² tn Heb “it shall be and its substitute shall be holy.”
