Imamat 14:26

14:26 The priest will then pour some of the olive oil into his own left hand, ¹ 

Imamat 8:27

8:27 He then put all of them on the palms ²  of Aaron and his sons, who waved ³  them as a wave offering before the Lord. ⁴ 

[14:26]  ¹ tn Heb “And from the oil the priest shall pour out on the left hand of the priest.” Regarding the repetition of “priest” in this verse see the note on v. 15 above.

[8:27]  ² sn The “palms” refer to the up-turned hands, positioned in such a way that the articles of the offering could be placed on them.

[8:27]  ³ tn Heb “and he waved.” The subject of the verb “he waved” is Aaron, but Aaron’s sons also performed the action (see “Aaron and his sons” just previously). See the similar shifts from Moses to Aaron as the subject of the action above (vv. 15, 16, 19, 20, 23), and esp. the note on Lev 8:15. In the present translation this is rendered as an adjectival clause (“who waved”) to indicate that the referent is not Moses but Aaron and his sons. Cf. CEV “who lifted it up”; NAB “whom he had wave” (with “he” referring to Moses here).

[8:27]  ⁴ sn See Lev 7:30-31, 34.
