Hebrew & Septuagint length

In English translation the verse runs 28 words from the Hebrew and 33 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.

In the original languages it is 17 Hebrew tokens and 27 Greek tokens — but the two are counted differently (Hebrew bundles its prefixes and suffixes into one token; the Greek is in lemma form), so that isn’t a like-for-like length.

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.

  1. Targum Onkelos Torah (Genesis–Deuteronomy)
    וּמִנְחַתְהוֹן סוּלְתָּא דְפִילָא בִמְשַׁח תְּלָתָא עִשְׂרוֹנִין לְתוֹרָא חָד לִתְלַת עֲשַׂר תּוֹרִין תְּרֵין עִשְׂרוֹנִין לְדִכְרָא חָד לִתְרֵין דִכְרִין

Commentary

Notes on Numbers 29:14 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.

Numbers, in the Pentateuch, opens this verse with 17 words (11 distinct Hebrew lemmas). Its most distinctive word is ʻissârôwn (“tithe”). Read the whole chapter for the surrounding context.

Discussion questions

  1. The word ʻissârôwn carries the sense “tithe.” How does it shape the verse?
  2. Exodus 29:40 shares the word «tithe» with this verse. How do the two illuminate each other?
  3. “three” occurs 2× in this one verse. What is the effect of the repetition?
  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. The verb «בְּלוּלָ֣ה» is Qal Participle Passive. How does its form color the action?
