The Key Word — נִכְרְתָ֞ה, nik'retahgenerated
The verb כָּרַת (karath) means 'to cut off' or 'to cut down.' It encompasses a range of actions, from physical cutting to forming covenants, often implying destruction or elimination. In this context, it indicates the serious consequence of being cut off from God's presence due to impurity.
The use of the Niphal form here suggests that the action is passive, meaning that the individual does not cut themselves off but is cut off by God as a result of their state of uncleanness.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
The translations generally agree on the meaning of the key terms.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main verb is אֱמֹ֣ר, say, which governs the entire command. The structure of the sentence includes a conditional clause introduced by אֲשֶׁר (who), detailing the conditions under which the command applies.
The syntax emphasizes the imperative nature of the command, with the consequences of approaching the offerings clearly articulated as a subordinate clause.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The Septuagint translates נִכְרְתָ֞ה as ἐχολεθρευθήσεται, which suggests a focus on the act of being cut off or destroyed. This choice reflects a strong interpretation of the consequences of impurity.
The Greek term emphasizes the severity of the action, aligning with the Hebrew's implication of divine judgment.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
Leviticus 22:3 instructs the Israelites that if any of their descendants approaches sacred offerings while unclean, they must be cut off from God's presence. This highlights the importance of purity when worshipping God.
Frequently Asked Questionsgenerated
Being in a state of uncleanness refers to a condition that renders a person impure, often due to specific actions or circumstances outlined in the Law.
Purity is crucial in approaching God as it reflects respect for His holiness and the seriousness of the covenant relationship between God and His people.
The consequence is being cut off from God's presence, which signifies a severe spiritual separation and loss of fellowship with Him.
While the specific laws of uncleanness may not apply today, the principle of approaching God with reverence and purity remains relevant in worship practices.

Man
(1.) Heb. ‘Adam, used as the proper name of the first man. The name is derived from a word meaning “to be red,” and thus the first man was called Adam because he was formed from the red earth. It is also the generic name of the human race (Gen. 1:26, 27; 5:2; 8:21; Deut. 8:3). Its equivalents are the Latin homo and the Greek anthropos (Matt. 5:13, 16). It denotes also man in opposition to woman (Gen. 3:12; Matt. 19:10).

Four Hebrew terms are rendered "man" in the Authorized Version: Adam, the name of the man created in the image of God. It appears to be derived from adam , "he or it was red or ruddy," like Edom. This was the generic term for the human race. Ish , "man," as distinguished from woman, husband. Geber , "a man," from gabar , "to be strong," generally with reference to his strength. Methim , "men," always masculine. Perhaps it may be derived from the root muth , "he died."

ov:
(1) In Anglo-Saxon, had the meaning "from," "away from" (as the strengthened form "off" has still), and was not used for genitive or possessive relations, these being expressed by special case-forms. In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.
OF, preposition ov. [Gr.]
1. From or out of; proceeding from, as the cause, source, means, author or agent bestowing.

Hence of is the sign of the genitive case, the case that denotes production; as the son of man, the son proceeding from man, produced from man. This is the primary sense, although we now say, produced by man.

Israel
The name conferred on Jacob after the great prayer-struggle at Peniel (Gen. 32:28), because “as a prince he had power with God and prevailed.” (See JACOB.) This is the common name given to Jacob’s descendants. The whole people of the twelve tribes are called “Israelites,” the “children of Israel” (Josh. 3:17; 7:25; Judg. 8:27; Jer. 3:21), and the “house of Israel” (Ex. 16:31; 40:38).
This name Israel is sometimes used emphatically for the true Israel (Ps. 73:1: Isa. 45:17; 49:3;
(the prince that prevails with God). The name given, (Genesis 32:28) to Jacob after his wrestling with the angel, (Hosea 12:4) at Peniel. Gesenius interprets Israel "soldier of God." It became the national name of the twelve tribes collectively. They are so called in (Exodus 3:16) and afterward. It is used in a narrower sense, excluding Judah, in (1 Samuel 11:8; 2 Samuel 20:1; 1 Kings 12:16) Thenceforth it was assumed and accepted as the name of the northern kingdom.

By the name Israel is sometimes understood all the posterity of Israel, the seed of Jacob, 1Co 10:18; sometimes all true believers, his spiritual seed, Ro 9:6; and sometimes the kingdom of Israel, or the ten tribes, as distinct from the kingdom of Judah.
יְהֹוָה (ye.ho.vah) is the proper name of the God of Israel, often rendered as Jehovah or the Lord. It signifies the self-existent or eternal nature of God.
