Keluaran 30:29

30:29 So you are to sanctify them, ¹  and they will be most holy; ²  anything that touches them will be holy. ³ 

Imamat 21:6

21:6 “‘They must be holy to their God, and they must not profane ⁴  the name of their God, because they are the ones who present the Lord’s gifts, ⁵  the food of their God. Therefore they must be holy. ⁶ 

[30:29]  ¹ tn The verb is a Piel perfect with vav (ו) consecutive; in this verse it is summarizing or explaining what the anointing has accomplished. This is the effect of the anointing (see Exod 29:36).

[30:29]  ² tn This is the superlative genitive again, Heb “holy of holies.”

[30:29]  ³ tn See Exod 29:37; as before, this could refer to anything or anyone touching the sanctified items.

[21:6]  ⁴ sn Regarding “profane,” see the note on Lev 10:10 above.

[21:6]  ⁵ sn Regarding the Hebrew term for “gifts,” see the note on Lev 1:9 above (cf. also 3:11 and 16 in combination with the word for “food” that follows in the next phrase here).

[21:6]  ⁶ tc Smr and all early versions have the plural adjective “holy” rather than the MT singular noun “holiness.”
