Leviticus 7:35

7:35 This is the allotment of Aaron and the allotment of his sons from the Lord’s gifts on the day Moses ¹  presented them to serve as priests ²  to the Lord.

Leviticus 22:27

22:27 “When an ox, lamb, or goat is born, it must be under the care of ³  its mother seven days, but from the eighth day onward it will be acceptable as an offering gift ⁴  to the Lord.

Leviticus 27:8

27:8 If he is too poor to pay the conversion value, he must stand the person before the priest and the priest will establish his conversion value; ⁵  according to what the man who made the vow can afford, ⁶  the priest will establish his conversion value.

[7:35]  ¹ tn Heb “the day he”; the referent (Moses) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[7:35]  ² tn Heb “in the day of he presented them to serve as priests to the Lord.” The grammar here is relatively unusual. First, the verb “presented” appears to be in the perfect rather than the infinitive (but see GKC 531), the latter being normal in such temporal expressions. Second, the active verb form appears to be used as a passive plural (“they were presented”). However, if it is translated active and singular then Moses would be the subject: “on the day he [Moses] offered them [Aaron and his sons].”

[22:27]  ³ tn The words “the care of” are not in the Hebrew text, but are implied. Although many modern English versions render “with its mother” (e.g., NAB, NASB, NIV, NRSV, NLT), the literal phrase “under its mother” refers to the young animal nursing from its mother. Cf. KJV, ASV “it shall be seven days under the dam,” which would probably be misunderstood.

[22:27]  ⁴ tn Heb “for an offering of a gift.”

[27:8]  ⁵ tn Heb “and the priest shall cause him to be valued.”

[27:8]  ⁶ tn Heb “on the mouth which the hand of the one who vowed reaches.”
