[24:5]  1 sn See the note on Lev 2:1.

[24:5]  2 tn Heb “and bake it twelve loaves”; KJV, NAB, NASB “cakes.”

[24:5]  3 tn The words “of flour” are supplied in the translation for clarity.

[24:6]  4 tn Heb “six of the row.”

[23:17]  7 tc Smr, LXX, Syriac, Tg. Onq., and Tg. Ps.-J. insert the word חַלּוֹת (khallot, “loaves”; cf. Lev 2:4 and the note there). Even though “loaves” is not explicit in the MT, the number “two” suggests that these are discrete units, not just a measure of flour, so “loaves” should be assumed even in the MT.

[23:17]  8 tn Heb “with leaven.” The noun “leaven” is traditional in English versions (cf. KJV, ASV, NASB, NRSV), but “yeast” is more commonly used today.
