Footnotes

1. Leviticus 17:6 tn For the translation “splash” see the note on Lev 1:5.
2. Leviticus 17:6 tn The LXX adds “all around” (i.e., Hebrew סָבִיב [saviv, “all around”]), which is normal for this overall construction (see, e.g., Lev 1:5; 3:8, etc.).
3. Leviticus 17:7 tn Heb “they.”
4. Leviticus 17:7 tn Heb “sacrifice.” This has been translated as “offer” for stylistic reasons to avoid the redundancy of “sacrifice their sacrifices.”

6. Leviticus 17:7 tn Heb “which they are committing harlotry after them.”
7. Leviticus 17:7 tn Heb “for your generations.”
8. Leviticus 17:8 tn Heb “Man, man.” The repetition of the word “man” is distributive, meaning “any [or “every”] man” (GKC 395-96 §123.c; cf. Lev 15:2).
9. Leviticus 17:8 tn Heb “and.” Here the Hebrew conjunction ו (vav, “and”) has an alternative sense (“or”).
