- Leviticus 18:3 tn Heb “As the work [or “deed”] of the land of Egypt, which you were dwelling in it, you must not do.”
- Leviticus 18:3 tn Heb “and as the work [or “deed”] of the land of Canaan which I am bringing you to there, you must not do.” The participle “I am bringing” is inceptive; the Lord is “about to” bring them into the land of Canaan, as opposed to their having dwelt previously in the land of Egypt (see the first part of the verse).
- Leviticus 18:3 tn Heb “and you shall not walk.”
