Numbers 18:12

18:12 “All the best of the olive oil and all the best of the wine and of the wheat, the first fruits of these things that they give to the Lord, I have given to you. ¹ 

Numbers 18:29

18:29 From all your gifts you must offer up every raised offering due ²  the Lord, from all the best of it, and the holiest part of it.’ ³ 

[18:12]  ¹ tn This form may be classified as a perfect of resolve – he has decided to give them to them, even though this is a listing of what they will receive.

[18:29]  ² tn The construction is “every raised offering of the Lord”; the genitive here is probably to be taken as a genitive of worth – the offering that is due the Lord.

[18:29]  ³ tn Or “its hallowed thing.”
