1.0 KiB
This continues the account of Jesus' healing the man who had leprosy.
him
the man who had had leprosy
say nothing to any man
Though the man would have to talk to the priest when he gave the sacrifice (see UDB), Jesus wanted the man to say nothing to anyone else about what had happened. This can be translated as "do not say anything to anyone" or "do not tell anyone that I healed you." (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-hyperbole)
show yourself to the priest
Jewish law required that the person show his healed skin to the priest, who would allow him or her to be with other people.
offer the gift that Moses commanded, for a testimony to them
The law of Moses required that someone healed of leprosy give a thanksgiving offering to the priest. When the priest accepted the gift, people would know that the man had been healed.
to them
This can possibly refer to the priests or 2) all the people or 3) the critics of Jesus. If possible, use a pronoun that could refer to any of these groups.
