Leviticus 19:19

19:19 You must keep my statutes. You must not allow two different kinds of your animals to breed, ¹  you must not sow your field with two different kinds of seed, and you must not wear ²  a garment made of two different kinds of fabric. ³ 

Leviticus 21:23

21:23 but he must not go into the veil-canopy ⁴  or step forward to the altar because he has a physical flaw. Thus ⁵  he must not profane my holy places, for I am the Lord who sanctifies them.’”

Leviticus 22:2

22:2 “Tell Aaron and his sons that they must deal respectfully with the holy offerings ⁶  of the Israelites, which they consecrate to me, so that they do not profane my holy name. ⁷  I am the Lord.

Leviticus 26:44

26:44 In spite of this, however, when they are in the land of their enemies I will not reject them and abhor them to make a complete end of them, to break my covenant with them, for I am the Lord their God.

[19:19]  ¹ tn Heb “Your animals, you shall not cross-breed two different kinds.”

[19:19]  ² tn Heb “you shall not cause to go up on you.”

[19:19]  ³ 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.

[21:23]  ⁴ sn See the note on Lev 16:2 for the rendering “veil-canopy.”

[21:23]  ⁵ tn Heb “And.” The Hebrew conjunction ו (vav, “and”) can be considered to have resultative force here.

[22:2]  ⁷ tn Heb “holy things,” which means the “holy offerings” in this context, as the following verses show. The referent has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[22:2]  ⁸ tn Heb “from the holy things of the sons of Israel, and they shall not profane my holy name, which they are consecrating to me.” The latter (relative) clause applies to the “the holy things of the sons of Israel” (the first clause), not the Lord’s name (i.e., the immediately preceding clause). The clause order in the translation has been rearranged to indicate this.
