Context24:2 “Command the Israelites to bring 1 to you pure oil of beaten olives for the light, to make a lamp burn continually. 2
Leviticus 6:9
Context6:9 “Command Aaron and his sons, ‘This is the law of the burnt offering. The burnt offering is to remain on the hearth 3 on the altar all night until morning, and the fire of the altar must be kept burning on it. 4
[24:2] 1 tn Heb “and let them take.” The simple vav (ו) on the imperfect/jussive form of the verb לָקַח (laqakh, “to take”) following the imperative (“Command”) indicates a purpose clause (“to bring…”).
[24:2] 2 tn Heb “to cause to ascend a lamp continually.”
[6:9] 3 tn Heb “It is the burnt offering on the hearth.”
[6:9] 4 tn Heb “in it.” In this context “in it” apparently refers to the “hearth” which was on top of the altar.
