Footnotes

  1. 6 Alternatively, “pure [gold] lampstand,” based on Exod 25:31, etc., where the term for “gold” actually appears (see , , , , , and the remarks in J. E. Hartley, Leviticus [], , etc.). However, in Lev 24:4 the adjective “pure” is feminine, corresponding to “lampstand,” not an assumed noun “gold” (contrast Exod 25:31), and the “table” in v. 6 was overlaid with gold, but was not made of pure gold. Therefore, it is probably better to translate “[ceremonially] pure lampstand” (v. 4) and “[ceremonially] pure table” (v. 6); see ; cf. , ; B. A. Levine, Leviticus [], ; and G. J. Wenham, Leviticus [], .
