Footnotes

  1. 30 Heb “Then he”; the referent (apparently still the priest) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
  2. 31 This translation (“remove its entrails by [cutting off] its tail feathers”) is based on the discussion in J. Milgrom, Leviticus (), 1:, although he translates, “remove its crissum by its feathers.” Others possibilities include “its crop with its contents” (., cf. , ; J. E. Hartley, Leviticus [], ) or “its crop with its feathers” (, , ; “crop” refers to the enlarged part of a bird’s gullet that serves a pouch for the preliminary maceration of food).
  3. 32 The pronoun “them” here is feminine singular in Hebrew and refers collectively to the entrails and tail wing which have been removed.
