Leviticus 26

It has been a long time since we did any Leviticus. (And I thought 6 months ago that we would soon finish it.) This section reads like the treaty of Deuteronomy 28, a summary of consequences. These trade agreements (and ancient treaties) really do prey on fears and desires. But note the reciprocal measures, also as if God operates in the human according as the human operates in the grace of the commandment. (Make no mistake, Pauline interpreters, there is a given prevenient grace here as much as anywhere else.)

The rhetoric of verse 10 is terse. JB and NIV both have wordy interpretations. Old store is interpreted as last year's harvest. And new as this year's harvest. But the explanation is prosaic. ישׁן is the harvest sleeping. I replaced the 3 uses (Deut 28, Prov 6 and 10) of the gloss store with stockpile for אגר to let old store and stored stand only for ישׁן in its sleepy metaphor.

Compromises are creeping into my rules! I see I have allowed עשה and נתן to share the gloss make. O well! Some rules were made to be broken in the last mile of a race. I can always go back and revisit them when I have finished the course. Not all rules are good for ever.

Verse 21 introduces a word used only in this chapter, קרי. I will keep it separate though it is derived from קרה.

Verse 26, מטה the branch of bread. The sense of departmentalization and system is already here in these ancient times. It is a subdivision that transcends the tribal units. Everybody has ovens, mills, flour, dough, and bread makers. I have separated this stem from the gloss staff which is also applied to שׁען. And separated these from the stem שׁבט, sceptre. All of these could easily (and do in other traditional renderings) merge into each other from the point of view of a symbol of rule. I wonder, when we are done, will my separation lead to the possibility of teasing out nuance in the Hebrew rather than mushing the words together. When we are going to have a foundation for say, historical theology, perhaps we should not have everything mushed together. We have plenty of trouble without starting with mush. What is worse than mush is the imposition of a theology say, of punishment, onto the text without any warrant in the text. I submit that the KJV has done just that, continuing a tradition from the Latin and probably the Greek as well.

I wrote that before I read verse 41 where punishment is introduced into the text and there is no word for it anywhere in the verse. It is not just that a half-dozen stems are sometimes rendered punish, but also that at least once punish is pulled out of thin air. This rank prejudice of the history of translation about God as punishing cannot have been good for the raising of children in any generation.
