Leviticus — Footnotes

🔗Chapter 1

1:2 — man, see Gender. This construction is used instead of 'a man' or 'any man' to indicate the underlying Hebrew word 'adam' with some consistency throughout the Old Testament.

🔗Chapter 6

6:2 — associate. This word generally refers to people who do business with each another. This is the same concept behind the word 'associate' in these other verses: Leviticus 18:20, 19:11, 19:15, 19:17, 24:19, 25:14, 25:15, 25:17 and Zechariah 13:7.

🔗Chapter 18

18:6 — in Chapters 18 and 20 to have any sex with means any type of sexual activity. It is generally translated in place of the idioms 'to uncover nakedness', 'to approach', or 'to lie with' in the original texts. See Definitions.

🔗Chapter 19

19:6 — third day — uses inclusive Hebrew counting: the day of the sacrifice is day one, the next day is day two, and the following day is day three. The NT uses the same inclusive reckoning for Jesus' resurrection on the third day.
