Hebrew & Septuagint length

In English translation the verse runs 28 words from the Hebrew and 24 from the Septuagint (LXX English) — closely comparable.

A rough comparison of the two English renderings, which tokenize alike — not a word-level alignment.

Word counts can differ between the Hebrew and the Greek without any difference in meaning — e.g. the Hebrew direct-object marker אֵת has no separate Greek word, and Greek often adds the article ὁ.

Targum (Aramaic paraphrase)

2

The Targum is the ancient Jewish Aramaic paraphrase of the Hebrew Scriptures — an interpretive translation, not the Hebrew text itself. Onkelos (literal) and Pseudo-Jonathan (expansive) render the Torah, and Jonathan the Prophets. Coverage is partial: where no permissively-licensed English translation exists for a verse, only the Aramaic is shown. This is verse-level text, not a word-by-word alignment to the Hebrew. Some Onkelos verses here show an unreviewed machine translation (clearly flagged), not a published edition.

  1. Targum Onkelos Torah (Genesis–Deuteronomy)
    וּדְאִשְׁתָּאַר מִן מִנְחָתָא לְאַהֲרֹן וְלִּבְנוֹהִי קוֹדֶשׁ קוּדְשִׁין מִקוּרְבָּנַיָא דַיְיָ

    Unreviewed machine translation (Claude Sonnet 5) — not public domain confidence: high

    And what remains of the meal-offering shall belong to Aaron and to his sons, a holy of holies from the offerings of the Lord.

    Generated by an AI translate-then-audit pipeline and checked against an independent public-domain English translation of the underlying Hebrew for drift only. Not a published edition; pending human review.

    Aramaic base: public-domain Targum Onkelos (via Sefaria). The English above is the unreviewed machine translation, not public domain.

  2. Targum Pseudo-Jonathan Torah (Genesis–Deuteronomy)
    וּמַה דְמִשְׁתַּיֵיר מִן מִנְחָתָא יְהֵי לְאַהֲרן וְלִבְנוֹי קוֹדֶשׁ קוּדְשִׁין מִקָרְבְּנַיָא דַיְיָ

    And what remaineth of the mincha shall be for Aharon and his sons, it is most holy among the oblations of the Lord.

Commentary

Notes on Leviticus 2:10 from classic Christian and Jewish commentators (each source and its license shown beneath its notes). The classic Christian expositions comment on the surrounding passage and are grouped to its opening verse, so a note may address several verses; the Jewish commentaries on the Tanakh (Rashi and others) are per-verse, so they appear only where the commentator wrote on this verse.

And that which is left of the meat offering,.... Not burnt with fire:

shall be Aaron's and his sons'; the high priest took his part first, and then the common priests:

it is a thing most holy of the offerings of the Lord made by fire; See Gill on Lev 2:3.

Discussion questions

  1. The word ʼishshâh carries the sense “burnt offering.” How does it shape the verse?
  2. How does Leviticus 2:3, which shares this passage’s theme, read alongside this verse?
  3. What does the repetition of “holiness” (2× in this one verse) do in this verse?
  4. The translations on this page render this verse differently — a whole-verse word diff, not a word-by-word alignment. What might account for the different wordings?
  5. «וְהַנּוֹתֶ֨רֶת֙» is a Niphal Participle Active verb. How does that grammatical form shape the action described?
  6. Compare how Trapp's Complete Commentary and John Gill's Exposition read this verse. Where do they agree or differ?
