Leviticus 7:16

7:16 “‘If his offering is a votive or freewill sacrifice, ¹  it may be eaten on the day he presents his sacrifice, and also the leftovers from it may be eaten on the next day, ² 

Leviticus 23:15

The Festival of Weeks

23:15 “‘You must count for yourselves seven weeks from the day after the Sabbath, from the day you bring the wave offering sheaf; they must be complete weeks. ³ 

[7:16]  ¹ tn For the distinction between votive and freewill offerings see the note on Lev 22:23 and the literature cited there.

[7:16]  ² tn Heb “and on the next day and the left over from it shall be eaten.”

[23:15]  ³ tn Heb “seven Sabbaths, they shall be complete.” The disjunctive accent under “Sabbaths” precludes the translation “seven complete Sabbaths” (as NASB, NIV; cf. NAB, NRSV, NLT). The text is somewhat awkward, which may explain why the LXX tradition is confused here, either adding “you shall count” again at the end of the verse, or leaving out “they shall be,” or keeping “they shall be” and adding “to you.”
