Penalties for forbidden acts · Leviticus 20
Penalties for forbidden acts (Leviticus 20) read aloud, in a fresh direct translation from the Hebrew - plain modern English, nothing added.
Translator's notes:
• Leviticus 20:2 — מֹלֶךְ (Molech): chose "Molech". Alternatives: "the Molech", "Moloch". Why: the Hebrew has the definite article, but Molech is treated here as the name of the deity or rite.
• Leviticus 20:17 — חֶסֶד (chesed): chose "a disgrace". Alternatives: "a shameful thing", "an act of love/loyalty". Why: in this context the word is used in its rare negative sense of disgrace, not its usual sense of steadfast love.
