The Key Word — תָּמִ֖ים, ta.Mimgenerated
The word תָּמִים (ta.Mim) means unblemished or perfect, specifically referring to an animal without defects. This term underscores the requirement for offerings to be whole and complete, reflecting integrity and purity. The parsing indicates it is an adjective, qualifying the male animal that is to be offered.
In this verse, the emphasis on being unblemished highlights the importance of presenting something perfect to God, aligning with the broader biblical principle that sacrifices should be of the highest quality, symbolizing the worshiper's devotion and respect.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
This study reads the verse in the Berean Standard Bible, so the BSB is the wording every comparison below is made against. The BSB has unblemished, which is also the choice of the KJV and ASV.
Where they part company is תָּמִ֖ים — perfect (LSV, YLT) contrasts with without defect (WEB). The differences reflect nuances in the understanding of the term's implications regarding the quality of the offering.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The verse contains a main clause introduced by the conditional particle אִם ('im), indicating a condition. The structure follows with a noun phrase specifying the offering, followed by a series of clauses detailing the requirements for the burnt offering.
The finite verb יַקְרִיבֶ֑ (yak.riv) governs the actions related to the offering, with several phrases describing the subject, object, and purpose of the action. The sentence flows logically, detailing the specific requirements for the burnt offering.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The Septuagint translates עֹלָ֤ה as ὁλοκαύτωμα (holokaftoma), which means a whole burnt offering. This choice emphasizes the total consumption of the sacrifice by fire, aligning with the Hebrew meaning.
Additionally, תָּמִ֖ים is rendered as ἄμωμον (amōmon), indicating something that is without blemish or defect. This translation reinforces the importance of purity in the offering, consistent with the Hebrew text.

Charles John Ellicott1819–1905Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(3) If his offering be a burnt sacrifice.—Having stated what is meant by animals, the directions now treat upon the different kinds of the offerings them-selves. First in order comes the burnt offering, which is divided into burnt offering from the beeves (Leviticus 1:3-9), and burnt offering from the flock (Leviticus 1:10-13). The ox takes precedence because it is the more costly and more important sacrifice. It had to be without disease or blemish of any kind. To offer a defective sacrifice was an insult and a deception. Hence the exclamation of the prophet, “cursed be the deceiver which hath in his flock a male and voweth and sacrificeth unto the Lord a corrupt thing” (i.e., an animal…

The four witnesses to this verse — Masoretic, Septuagint, Samaritan, Qumran
The Masoretic Text is supported by the Septuagint, which matches 15 of the 17 words. The Samaritan Pentateuch differs slightly in one word, using 'רצונו' (pleasure) instead of the Masoretic 'לרצונו' (for acceptance). The Dead Sea Scrolls show some restoration but align closely with the Masoretic Text.

Burnt offering
Hebrew olah; i.e., “ascending,” the whole being consumed by fire, and regarded as ascending to God while being consumed. Part of every offering was burnt in the sacred fire, but this was wholly burnt, a “whole burnt offering.” It was the most frequent form of sacrifice, and apparently the only one mentioned in the book of Genesis. Such were the sacrifices offered by Abel (Gen. 4:3, 4, here called minhah; i.e., “a gift”), Noah (Gen. 8:20), Abraham (Gen. 22:2, 7, 8, 13), and by the Hebrews in Egypt (Ex. 10:25).
The law of Moses afterwards prescribed the occasions and the manner in which burnt sacrifices were to be offered. There were “the continual…
The word is applied to the offering which was wholly consumed by fire on the altar, and the whole of which, except the refuse ashes "ascended" in the smoke to God. The meaning of the whole burnt offering was that which is the original idea of all sacrifice, the offering by the sacrificer of himself, soul and body, to God--the submission of his will to the will of the Lord. The ceremonies of the burnt offering are given in detail in the book of Leviticus. [SACRIFICE]
