Context24:5 “You must take choice wheat flour 1 and bake twelve loaves; 2 there must be two tenths of an ephah of flour in 3 each loaf, 24:6 and you must set them in two rows, six in a row, 4 on the ceremonially pure table before the Lord.
Leviticus 23:17

[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.
