Leviticus 3:17

3:17 This is ¹  a perpetual statute throughout your generations ²  in all the places where you live: You must never eat any fat or any blood.’” ³ 

Exodus 29:9

29:9 and wrap the sashes around Aaron and his sons ⁴  and put headbands on them, and so the ministry of priesthood will belong to them by a perpetual ordinance. Thus you are to consecrate ⁵  Aaron and his sons.

[3:17]  ¹ tn The words “This is” are not in the Hebrew text, but are supplied due to requirements of English style.

[3:17]  ² tn Heb “for your generations”; NAB “for your descendants”; NLT “for you and all your descendants.”

[3:17]  ³ tn Heb “all fat and all blood you must not eat.”

[29:9]  ⁴ tc Hebrew has both the objective pronoun “them” and the names “Aaron and his sons.” Neither the LXX nor Leviticus 8:13 has “Aaron and his sons,” suggesting that this may have been a later gloss in the text.

[29:9]  ⁵ tn Heb “and you will fill the hand” and so “consecrate” or “ordain.” The verb draws together the individual acts of the process.
