Numbers 5:9

5:9 Every offering ¹  of all the Israelites’ holy things that they bring to the priest will be his.

Numbers 18:27

18:27 And your raised offering will be credited ²  to you as though it were grain from the threshing floor or as new wine ³  from the winepress.

Numbers 18:29

18:29 From all your gifts you must offer up every raised offering due ⁴  the Lord, from all the best of it, and the holiest part of it.’ ⁵ 

[5:9]  ¹ tn The Hebrew word תְּרוּמָה (tÿrumah) seems to be a general word for any offering that goes to the priests (see J. Milgrom, Studies in Cultic Theology and Terminology [SJLA 36], 159-72).

[18:27]  ² tn The verb is חָשַׁב (khashav, “to reckon; to count; to think”); it is the same verb used for “crediting” Abram with righteousness. Here the tithe of the priests will be counted as if it were a regular tithe.

[18:27]  ³ tn Heb “fullness,” meaning the fullness of the harvest, i.e., a full harvest.

[18:29]  ³ 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]  ⁴ tn Or “its hallowed thing.”
