[3:11]  ¹ tn Heb “food, a gift to the Lord.”

[7:3]  ² tn Heb “then he.” This pronoun refers to the offerer, who was responsible for slaughtering the animal. Contrast v. 2 above and v. 5 below.

[7:32]  ³ tn Older English versions (e.g., KJV, ASV) translate this Hebrew term (תְּרוּמָה, tÿrumah) “heave offering,” derived from the idea of “to raise, to lift” found in the verbal root (cf. NAB “a raised offering”). “Contribution offering” is a better English rendering because it refers to something “taken out from” (i.e., “lifted up from”; cf. the Hebrew term הֵרִים (herim) in, e.g., Lev 2:9; 4:8, etc.) the offering as a special contribution to the specific priest who presided over the offering procedures in any particular instance (see the next verse and R. E. Averbeck, NIDOTTE 4:335-37). Cf. TEV “as a special contribution”; NCV, NLT “as a gift.”

[8:36]  ⁴ tn Heb “by the hand of” (so KJV).

[24:12]  ⁵ tn The words “until they were able” are not in the Hebrew text, but are implied.

[24:12]  ⁶ tn The Hebrew here is awkward. A literal reading would be something like the following: “And they placed him in custody to give a clear decision [HALOT 976 s.v. פרשׁ qal] for themselves on the mouth of the Lord.” In any case, they were apparently waiting for a direct word from the Lord regarding this matter (see vv. 13ff).

[25:48]  ⁶ tn Heb “right of redemption shall be to him.”

[25:51]  ⁷ tn Heb “to the mouth of them.”

[27:29]  ⁸ tn Heb “permanently dedicated from among men.”

[27:31]  ⁹ tn Heb “And if redeeming [infinitive absolute] a man redeems [finite verb].” For the infinitive absolute used to highlight contrast rather than emphasis see GKC 343 §113.p.

[27:31]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “its one fifth on it.”
