Footnotes

  1. 22 The here is awkward to translate into English. It reads literally, “and the priest who pronounces clean (Piel participle of טָהֵר, taher) shall cause to stand (Hiphil of עָמַד, ’amad) the man who is cleansing himself (Hitpael participle of טָהֵר) and them” (i.e., the offerings listed in v. 10; the referent has been specified in the translation for clarity). Alternatively, the Piel of טָהֵר could be rendered “who performs the cleansing/purification” (J. Milgrom, Leviticus [], 1:), perhaps even as a technical term for one who holds the office of “purification priest” (B. A. Levine, Leviticus [], ). It is probably better, however, to retain the same meaning here as in v. 7 above (see the there regarding the declarative Piel use of this verb).
