Imamat 8:33

8:33 And you must not go out from the entrance of the Meeting Tent for seven days, until the day when your days of ordination are completed, because you must be ordained over a seven-day period. ¹ 

Imamat 27:3

27:3 the conversion value of the male ²  from twenty years old up to sixty years old ³  is fifty shekels by the standard of the sanctuary shekel. ⁴ 

[8:33]  ¹ tn Heb “because seven days he shall fill your hands”; KJV “for seven days shall he consecrate you”; CEV “ends seven days from now.”

[8:33]  sn It is apparent that the term for “ordination offering” (מִלֻּאִים, millu’im; cf. Lev 7:37 and the note there) is closely related to the expression “he shall fill (Piel מִלֵּא, mille’) your hands” in this verse. Some derive the terminology from the procedure in Lev 8:27-28, but the term for “hands” there is actually “palms.” It seems more likely that it derives from the notion of putting the priestly responsibilities (or possibly its associated prebends) under their control (i.e., “filling their hands” with authority; see J. Milgrom, Leviticus [AB], 1:538-39). The command “to keep the charge of the Lord” in v. 35 and the expression “by the hand of Moses” (i.e., under the authoritative hand of Moses, v. 36) may also support this interpretation.

[27:3]  ² tn Heb “your conversion value shall be [for] the male.”

[27:3]  ³ tn Heb “from a son of twenty years and until a son of sixty years.”

[27:3]  ⁴ tn See the note on Lev 5:15.
