  1. Leviticus 14:18 tn Heb “and the remainder in the oil.”
  2. Leviticus 14:19 tn Heb “do [or “make”] the sin offering.”
  3. Leviticus 14:19 tn Heb “And after[ward] he [i.e., the offerer] shall slaughter.” The LXX adds “the priest” as the subject of the verb (as do several English versions, e.g., NAB, NIV, NCV, NLT), but the offerer is normally the one who does the actually slaughtering of the sacrificial animal (cf. the notes on Lev 1:5a, 6a, and 9a).
  4. Leviticus 14:20 tn Heb “cause to go up.”
