Translation commentary on Leviticus 9:13

Compare 1.12.

Piece by piece, and the head: the structure of Revised Standard Version at this point is awkward and needs restructuring. Since the head is one of the pieces of the animal, Good News Translation has “the head and the other pieces.” In some cases one may prefer “the head and all the other pieces.”
