Footnotes

  1. 41 Older English versions (e.g., , ) translate this Hebrew term (תְּרוּמָה, térumah) “heave offering,” derived from the idea of “to raise, to lift” found in the verbal root (cf. “a raised offering”). “Contribution offering” is a better English rendering because it refers to something “taken out from” (i.e., “lifted up from”; cf. the Hebrew term הֵרִים (herim) in, e.g., Lev 2:9; 4:8, etc.) the offering as a special contribution to the specific priest who presided over the offering procedures in any particular instance (see the next verse and R. E. Averbeck, 4:). Cf. “as a special contribution”; , “as a gift.”
