[6:5]  ¹ tn Heb “or from all which he swears on it to falsehood.”

[6:5]  ² tn Heb “in its head.” This refers “the full amount” in terms of the “principal,” the original item or amount obtained illegally (J. Milgrom, Leviticus [AB], 1:338; J. E. Hartley, Leviticus [WBC], 84).

[6:5]  ³ tn Heb “to whom it is to him he shall give it in the day of his being guilty.” The present translation is based on the view that he has been found guilty through the legal process (see the note on v. 4 above; cf., e.g., TEV and B. A. Levine, Leviticus [JPSTC], 33-34). Others translate the latter part as “in the day he offers his guilt [reparation] offering” (e.g., NIV and J. E. Hartley, Leviticus [WBC], 73, 84), or “in the day he realizes his guilt” (e.g., NRSV and J. Milgrom, Leviticus [AB], 1:319, 338).

[8:34]  ⁴ tn Heb “just as he has done” (cf. the note on v. 33).

[8:34]  ⁵ tn Heb “the Lord has commanded to do” (cf. the note on v. 33).

[9:5]  ⁶ tn Heb “to the faces of.”

[11:37]  ⁷ tn Heb “And if there falls from their carcass on any seed of sowing which shall be sown.”

[13:46]  ⁸ tn Heb “All the days which the infection is in him.”

[18:4]  ⁹ tn Heb “My regulations you shall do”; KJV, NASB “my judgments”; NRSV “My ordinances”; NIV, TEV “my laws.”

[18:4]  sn The Hebrew term translated “regulation” (מִשְׁפָּט, mishpat) refers to the set of regulations about to be set forth in the following chapters (cf. Lev 19:37; 20:22; 25:18; 26:46). Note especially the thematic and formulaic relationships between the introduction here in Lev 18:1-5 and the paraenesis in Lev 20:22-26, both of which refer explicitly to the corrupt nations and the need to separate from them by keeping the Lord’s regulations.

[18:4]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “and my statutes you shall keep [or “watch; guard”] to walk in them.”

[22:5]  ¹¹ tn Heb “which there shall be uncleanness to him.”

[22:5]  ¹² tn The Hebrew term for “person” here is אָדָם (adam, “human being”), which could either a male or a female person.

[22:5]  ¹³ tn Heb “to all his impurity.” The phrase refers to the impurity of the person whom the man touches to become unclean (see the previous clause). To clarify this, the translation uses “that person’s” rather than “his.”

[23:7]  ¹⁴ tn Heb “work of service”; KJV “servile work”; NASB “laborious work”; TEV “daily work.”

[23:28]  ¹⁵ tn Heb “in the bone of this day.”

[23:28]  ¹⁶ tn Heb “on you [plural]”; cf. NASB, NRSV “on your behalf.”

[25:12]  ¹⁷ tn That is, the produce of the land (fem.; cf. v. 7 above).

[26:9]  ¹⁸ tn Heb “cause to arise,” but probably used here for the Lord’s intention of confirming or maintaining the covenant commitment made at Sinai. Cf. KJV “establish”; NASB “will confirm”; NAB “carry out”; NIV “will keep.”
