Context19:13 You must not oppress your neighbor or commit robbery against him. 1 You must not withhold 2 the wages of the hired laborer overnight until morning.
Leviticus 19:31
Context19:31 Do not turn to the spirits of the dead and do not seek familiar spirits 3 to become unclean by them. I am the Lord your God.


[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”).
[19:31] 3 sn The prohibition here concerns those who would seek special knowledge through the spirits of the dead, whether the dead in general or dead relatives in particular (i.e., familiar spirits; see J. E. Hartley, Leviticus [WBC], 321, and B. A. Levine, Leviticus [JPSTC], 134). Cf. Lev 20:6 below.
