Imamat 14:57

14:57 to teach when something is unclean and when it is clean. ¹  This is the law for dealing with infectious disease.” ² 

Imamat 22:20

22:20 You must not present anything that has a flaw, ³  because it will not be acceptable for your benefit. ⁴ 

[14:57]  ¹ tn Heb “to teach in the day of the unclean and in the day of the clean.”

[14:57]  ² tn Heb “This is the law of the disease.” Some English versions specify this as “skin disease” (e.g., NIV, NLT), but then have to add “and (+ infectious NLT) mildew” (so NIV) because a house would not be infected with a skin disease.

[14:57]  sn For an explanation of the term “disease” see Lev 13:2.

[22:20]  ³ tn Heb “all which in it [is] a flaw.” Note that the same term is used for physical flaws of people in Lev 21:17-24. Cf. KJV, ASV, NRSV “blemish”; NASB, NIV, TEV “defect”; NLT “with physical defects.”

[22:20]  ⁴ tn Heb “not for acceptance shall it be for you”; NIV “it will not be accepted on your behalf” (NRSV and NLT both similar).
