Leviticus 20:3

20:3 I myself will set my face ¹  against that man and cut him off from the midst of his people, ²  because he has given some of his children to Molech and thereby defiled my sanctuary and profaned my holy name. ³ 

Leviticus 22:2

22:2 “Tell Aaron and his sons that they must deal respectfully with the holy offerings ⁴  of the Israelites, which they consecrate to me, so that they do not profane my holy name. ⁵  I am the Lord.

[20:3]  ¹ tn Heb “And I, I shall give my faces.”

[20:3]  ² sn On the “cut off” penalty see the notes on Lev 7:20 and 17:4.

[20:3]  ³ tn Heb “for the sake of defiling my sanctuary and to profane my holy name.”

[22:2]  ⁴ 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]  ⁵ 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.
