UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / reduplication

אִ֣ישׁ אִ֞ישׁ

(a)_man (a)_man

Here, the word man refers to any male priest. See how you handled the repetition of the word man in 15:2. Alternate translation: “Any priest”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

(Some words not found in UHB: (a)_man (a)_man of,offspring ʼAhₐron's and=he a_leprous_disease or discharge in/on/at/with,sacred_donations not eat until which/who clean and,the,touches in=all unclean creature or (a)_man which/who goes_out from=him/it emission seed )

See how you handled this metaphor for descendants in 20:2. Alternate translation: “from the children of Aaron” or “from Aaron’s descendants”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

וְה֤וּא צָר֨וּעַ֙ א֣וֹ זָ֔ב

The terms skin diseased and flowing refer to various kinds of visible, infectious skin diseases. See how you translated the expression skin diseased in 13:44. Similarly, see how you translated the word flowing in 15:2.

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / genericnoun

וְ⁠הַ⁠נֹּגֵ֨עַ֙ בְּ⁠כָל־ טְמֵא

and,the,touches in=all unclean

This expression refers generally to any priest who touches something unclean, not to a specific priest. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a more natural expression. Alternate translation: “And any priest who touches anything unclean”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / possession

בְּכָל־ טְמֵא־ נֶ֔פֶשׁ

This expression uses the possessive form to describe anything unclean that is characterized by its having a human source. In other words, the phrase described human uncleanness, whether an unclean person or a discharge or blood that has come from a person. If your language would not use the possessive form for this, you could use a generic expression. Alternate translation: “anything unclean that has come from a person” or “any unclean person”

אִ֔ישׁ אֲשֶׁר־ תֵּצֵ֥א מִמֶּ֖נּוּ שִׁכְבַת־ זָֽרַע׃
