Footnotes
- 1 Heb “produces seed” (Hiphil of זָרַע, zara’; used only elsewhere in Gen 1:11–12 for plants “producing” their own “seed”), referring to the process of childbearing as a whole, from conception to the time of birth (H. D. Preuss, 4:144; cf. J. E. Hartley, Leviticus [], ; and J. Milgrom, Leviticus [], 1:). and have Niphal “be impregnated” (see, e.g., Num 5:28); note “If a woman have conceived seed” (cf. , , ; also , “becomes pregnant”).
- 2 The regulations for the “male child” in vv. 2–4 contrast with those for the “female child” in v. 5 (see the there).
- 3 Heb “as the days of the menstrual flow [] of her menstruating [q. inf.] she shall be unclean” (R. E. Averbeck, 1:; the verb appears only in this verse in the OT). Cf. “as in the days of her menstruation”; “during her menstrual period”; “during her monthly period.” See Lev 15:19–24 for the standard purity regulations for a woman’s menstrual period.
