Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

as himself

The scribe is leaving out some of the words that a sentence would need in many languages to be complete. If it would be helpful in your language, you could supply these words from the context.

Note 8 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet

πάντων τῶν ὁλοκαυτωμάτων καὶ θυσιῶν

all the whole_burnt_offerings and sacrifices

The terms whole burnt offerings and sacrifices mean similar things. The scribe is using the two terms together to include all the different kinds of sacrifices and offerings in his claim. If it would be clearer for your readers, you could express the emphasis with a single phrase. Alternate translation: [all the various offerings] or [all sacrifices that anyone might offer]
