Verse 7

Which your own hands have made unto you for a sin "The sin, which their own hands have made" - The construction of the word חטא chet , sin , in this place is not easy. The Septuagint have omitted it: MSS. Pachom. and 1. D. 2 and Cod. Marchal. in margine , supply the omission by the word ἁμαρτιαν , sin, or ἁμαρτημα , said to be from Aquila's Version, which I have followed. The learned Professor Schroeder, Institut. Ling. Hebrews p. 298, makes it to be in regimine with ידיכם yedeychem , as an epithet, your sinful hands. The Septuagint render the pronoun in the third person, αἱ χειρες αυτων , their hands; and an ancient MS. has, agreeable to that rendering, להם lahem , to them, for לכם lachem , to you; which word they have likewise omitted, as not necessary to complete the sense.
