Imamat 22:19

22:19 if it is to be acceptable for your benefit ¹  it must be a flawless male from the cattle, sheep, or goats.

Imamat 22:27

22:27 “When an ox, lamb, or goat is born, it must be under the care of ²  its mother seven days, but from the eighth day onward it will be acceptable as an offering gift ³  to the Lord.

[22:19]  ¹ tn Heb “for your acceptance.” See Lev 1:3-4 above and the notes there.

[22:27]  ² 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]  ³ tn Heb “for an offering of a gift.”
