[6:27]  ¹ tn Heb “on the garment”; NCV “on any clothes”; CEV “on the clothes of the priest.”

[6:27]  ² tc The translation “you must wash” is based on the MT as it stands (cf. NASB, NIV). Smr, LXX, Syriac, Tg. Ps.-J., and the Vulgate have a third person masculine singular passive form (Pual), “[the garment] must be washed” (cf. NAB, NRSV, NLT). This could also be supported from the verbs in the following verse, and it requires only a repointing of the Hebrew text with no change in consonants. See the remarks in J. E. Hartley, Leviticus (WBC), 90 and J. Milgrom, Leviticus (AB), 1:404.

[15:11]  ³ tn Heb “And all who the man with the discharge touches in him and his hands he has not rinsed in water.”

[16:3]  ⁵ tn Heb “with a bull, a son of the herd.”

[16:3]  ⁶ sn See the note on Lev 4:3 regarding the term “sin offering.”

[16:3]  ⁷ sn For the “burnt offering” see the note on Lev 1:3.

[18:18]  ⁷ tn Or “as a concubine”; Heb “And a woman to her sister you shall not take to be a second wife [or “to be a concubine”].” According to HALOT 1059 s.v. III צרר, the infinitive “to be a second wife” (לִצְרֹר, litsror) is a denominative verb from II צָרָה A (“concubine; second wife”), which, in turn, derives from II צר “to treat with hostility” (cf. J. E. Hartley, Leviticus [WBC], 283, and B. A. Levine, Leviticus [JPSTC], 122).

[18:18]  ⁸ tn Heb “on her in her life.”

[27:26]  ⁹ tn Heb “to the Lord it is.”
