Footnotes

19 The subject “he” probably refers to the formerly diseased person in this case (see the notes on , , and ).
20 This term is often rendered “fine flour,” but it refers specifically to wheat as opposed to barley (B. A. Levine, Leviticus [], ) and, although the translation “flour” is used here, it may indicate “grits” rather than finely ground flour (J. Milgrom, Leviticus [], 1:; see the note on ). The unit of measure is most certainly an “ephah” even though it is not stated explicitly (see, e.g., Num 28:5; cf. 15:4, 6, 8), and three-tenths of an ephah would amount to about a gallon, or perhaps one-third of a bushel (J. E. Hartley, Leviticus [], ; Milgrom, 845). Since the normal amount of flour for a lamb is one-tenth of an ephah (Num 28:4–5; cf. 15:4), three-tenths is about right for the three lambs offered in Lev 14:10–20.
21 A “log” (לֹג, log) of oil is about one-sixth of a liter, or one-third of a pint, or two-thirds of a cup.
