[2:3]  ¹ tn Heb “…is to Aaron and to his sons.” The preposition “to” (לְ, lamed) indicates ownership. Cf. NAB, NASB, NIV and other English versions.

[2:3]  ² tn The words “it is” (הוּא, hu’) are not in the MT, but are supplied for the sake of translation into English. The Syriac also for translational reasons adds it between “most holy” and “from the gifts” (cf. 1:13, 17).

[2:3]  ³ tn Heb “holy of holies”; KJV, NASB “a thing most holy.”

[2:10]  ⁴ tn See the note on “it is” in v. 9b.

[6:17]  ⁵ tn Heb “It must not be baked leavened” (cf. Lev 2:11). The noun “leaven” is traditional in English versions (cf. KJV, ASV, NASB, NRSV), but “yeast” is more commonly used today.

[6:17]  ⁶ tn Heb “holiness of holinesses [or holy of holies] it is”; cf. NAB “most sacred.”

[6:29]  ⁷ tn Heb “holiness of holinesses [or holy of holies] it is” (also in 7:1).

[24:8]  ⁸ tn Heb “In the day of the Sabbath, in the day of the Sabbath.” The repetition is distributive. A few medieval Hebrew mss, the LXX, and the Syriac delete the second occurrence of the expression.

[24:8]  ⁹ tn Heb “he”; the referent (Aaron) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[24:8]  ¹⁰ tn The word “portion” is supplied in the translation here for clarity, to specify what “this” refers to.

[24:9]  ¹¹ tn Or “a perpetual regulation”; NRSV “a perpetual due.”

[18:9]  ¹² tn Heb “from the fire.” It probably refers to those parts that were not burned.
