According to the poetry of the Midrash Tanḥuma, Bereshit 1:1, the words of the Torah were inscribed “black fire on white fire.” For many years, I’ve wanted to look deeply into the black fire and visualize the full spectrum of the Torah’s sources, hidden within the black fire but revealed through a critical analysis of its layers of redaction. Below, I’ve set the text of the Torah portion in the annual Torah reading cycle, using color-coding to distinguish the stratigraphic layers forming the composition of the Masoretic text according to the Supplementary Hypothesis presented by Tsemaḥ Yoreh in his Kernel to Canon series of books (2013-2017) and his website, the Sources of Biblical Narrative. As Dr. Yoreh explains,
The Supplementary Hypothesis asserts that the Pentateuch was composed by several different writers. This reflects an overwhelming academic consensus on Biblical authorship, even among scholars who do not subscribe to the Supplementary Hypothesis in particular.[….] According to the Supplementary Hypothesis, Biblical narrative is layered. No editor took a blowtorch to the parts of the Bible he disagreed with and destroyed them; if he had, we would not find these repetitions and contradictions. Instead, Biblical narrative began with a coherent, foundational bedrock, which over time accreted more and more storylines. Unlike geological processes, though, this process of addition was deliberate. What happened if one author disagreed with his predecessor’s storyline or worldview? He did not simply take an axe to the narrative; instead, he attempted to bury his predecessor’s point of view by repeating his own over and over again, thus skewing our understanding of the story in new ways. Every generation of readers sees the world differently, and thus every generation of writers seeks to adapt their predecessors’ cultural heritage to their own situation. We are not meant simply to dismiss earlier stories; rather, the intention of later writers is to transform our understanding of those stories via their additions.
Legend
⬛ The kernel of biblical text upon which all other narratives were laid is thought to have been composed in the mid- to late eighth century BCE toward the end of the heyday of the northern Kingdom of Ephraim (one of the two kingdoms that occupied Biblical Israel). This layer, commonly referred to as ‘E’, is indicated with INDIGO text. The first parashah containing text of this layer was parashat Vayera in Sefer Bereshit.
⬛ The next oldest layer is thought to have been composed in the late 8th or early 7th century BCE in the southern Kingdom of Judah. This layer, commonly known as ‘J’, is indicated with a BLUE text.
⬛ This strata, thought to have been composed during the exilic to early post-exilic period (571–486 BCE) is, as Dr. Yoreh explains, “responsible for supplementing the ‘J’ narrative with dates, names, and numbers, thus ‘ordering’ and authenticating ‘J’s account.” This layer, commonly referred to as ‘P’ (for ‘Priestly’) appears here in GREEN text.
⬛ The next strata popularized Kohanite law for the remnant of Judah after the Temple was destroyed, and functioned as an intermediary between Kohanite lists and laws and the surrounding narrative. This layer, which Dr. Yoreh calls ‘H’ (for the ‘Holiness Code’) appears here in LIME-GREEN text.
⬛ The most recent layer of text, is a post-exilic (pre-3rd century BCE) text that Dr. Yoreh refers to as the “Bridger” which supplements earlier strata with genealogies and popular myths, providing narrative bridges between distant story cycles. This ‘B’ layer is presented here in FUCHSIA.
The kernel of biblical text ‘E,’ its early supplemental layer ‘J’, and its later supplement ‘B,’ are absent from Sefer Vayiqra (Leviticus).
Parashat Tsav (Leviticus 6:1-8:36) in the annual Torah reading cycle, is read on the second shabbat of the month of Nissan, or the second shabbat in Adar ב during a Jewish leap year. The parashah is preceded by parashat Vayiqra (Leviticus 1:1-5:26); parashat Shemini (Leviticus 9:1-11:47), follows it.

6 1 YHVH spoke to Mosheh, saying: 2 “Command Aharon and his sons, saying: ‘This is the Torah/Instruction for the offering-up — that is what goes-up on the blazing-hearth on the Mizbe’aḥ all night, until daybreak, while the fire of the Mizbe’aḥ is kept-blazing on it: 3 The kohen is to clothe himself in his wide-raiment of linen, with breeches of linen he is to clothe himself, over his “flesh”; he is to set-aside the ashes from which the fire has consumed the offering-up on the Mizbe’aḥ, and is to put them beside the Mizbe’aḥ. 4 Then he is to strip off his garments and clothe himself in other garments, and he is to bring the ashes outside the camp, to a ritually-pure place. 5 Now the fire on the Mizbe’aḥ is to be kept-blazing upon it — it must not go out! — and the kohen is to stoke on it (pieces-of-)wood, in the morning, (every) morning, and he is to arrange on it the offering-up, and is to turn into smoke on it the fat-parts of the shalom-offering. 6 A regular fire is to be kept-blazing upon the Mizbe’aḥ — it is not to go out!'” |

7 “Now this is the Instruction for the grain-gift: Aharon’s sons must bring-it-near, before the presence of YHVH, in front of the Mizbe’aḥ. 8 There shall be set-aside from it, by the handful, some of the flour of the grain-gift and some of its oil, with all the frankincense that is upon the grain-gift, and it is to be turned into smoke on the Mizbe’aḥ, as a soothing savor, as its reminder-portion to YHVH. 9 What is left of it, Aharon and his sons are to eat, unleavened it is to be eaten, in a holy place, in the courtyard of the Ohel Mo’ed they are to eat it. 10 It is not to be baked with leaven; as their portion I have given it from my fire-offerings — it is a holiest holy-portion, like the ḥattat-offering, like the asham-offering. 11 Any male among the Children of Aharon may eat it, (as) an allotment for the ages, throughout your generations, from the fire-offerings of YHVH; whatever touches it becomes holy (property).” |

12 YHVH spoke to Mosheh, saying: 13 “This is the near-offering of Aharon and his sons that they are to bring-near to YHVH at the time of his being-anointed: a tenth-measure of an efa of flour as a regular grain-gift, half of it in the morning and half of it in the evening. 14 On a griddle, with oil, it is to be made, well-stirred are you to bring it, as baked crumbled-bits of grain you are to bring-it-near, a soothing savor for YHVH. 15 Thus shall the kohen anointed in his stead, from (among) his sons, sacrifice it, a law for the ages, for YHVH: completely it is to be turned into smoke. 16 And every grain-gift of a kohen, completely-offered shall it be; it is not to be eaten.” |

17 YHVH spoke to Mosheh, saying: 18 “Speak to Aharon and to his sons, saying: ‘This is the Instruction for the ḥattat-offering: in the place where the offering-up is slain, the ḥattat is to be slain, before the presence of YHVH; it is a holiest holy-portion. 19 The kohen who sacrifices-the-ḥattat-offering is to eat of it, in a holy place it is to be eaten, in the courtyard of the Ohel Mo’ed. 20 Whatever touches its flesh becomes holy (property). And if some of its blood is spattered on a garment, (the spot) on which it is spattered is to be scrubbed in a holy place. 21 Now a vessel of earthenware in which it was boiled is to be broken; if (it was) in a copper vessel that it was boiled, it is to be scoured and rinsed with water. 22 Any male among the kohanim may eat it, it is a holiest holy-portion. 23 But any ḥattat-offering from whose blood is brought to the Ohel Mo’ed, to effect-atonement in the Holy-shrine, shall not be eaten, in fire it is to be burned.'” |

11 “Now this is the Instruction for the slaughter-offering of shalom that is brought-near for YHVH: 12 if (it is) on account of thanksgiving that he brings-it-near, he is to bring-near along with the slaughter-offering of thanksgiving: matsah cakes, mixed with oil, matsah wafers smeared with oil, and flour well-stirred into cakes, mixed with oil. 13 Along with cakes of leavened bread he is to bring-near his near-offering, along with his slaughter-offering of thanksgiving of shalom. 14 He is to bring-near from it one of each (kind of) near-offering as a contribution for YHVH, (it is) for the kohen that dashes the blood of the shalom-offering — his shall it be. 15 As for the flesh of his slaughter-offering of thanksgiving of shalom, on the day of his bringing-it-near it is to be eaten, he may not leave (any) of it until morning. 16 Now if a vow-offering or a freewill-offering is his slaughtered near-offering, on the day of his bringing-near his slaughter-offering it is to be eaten, on the morrow, what is left of it may be eaten. 17 And what is left of the flesh of the slaughter-offering — on the third day, in fire it is to be burned. 18 Now should there be eaten, yes, eaten any of the flesh of his slaughter-offering of shalom on the third day, it is not acceptable (for) him that brings-it-near, it will not be reckoned to him. Tainted-meat shall it be (considered), and the person who eats of it — his iniquity he shall bear! 19 Flesh that touches anything tamei is not to be eaten, in fire it is to be burned. As for (other) flesh: anyone ritually-pure may eat the flesh. 20 But the person that eats flesh from the slaughter-offering of shalom that is YHVH’s while his tum’a is upon him, cut-off shall that person be from his kinspeople! 21 And a person — when he touches anything tamei, human tum’a or a tamei animal or any tamei detestable-creature, and eats from the flesh of the slaughter-offering of shalom that is YHVH’s, cut-off shall that person be from his kinspeople!” |

28 YHVH spoke to Mosheh, saying: 29 “Speak to the Children of Yisrael, saying: ‘He who brings-near his slaughter-offering of shalom for YHVH is to bring his near-offering (himself) to YHVH, from his slaughter-offering of shalom; 30 his (own) hands are to bring the fire-offerings for YHVH. The fat — along with the breast he is to bring it, the breast for elevating it as an elevation-offering, before the presence of YHVH. 31 And the kohen is to turn the fat into smoke on the Mizbe’aḥ. And the breast is to be Aharon’s and his sons’. 32 Now the right thigh you are to give as a contribution to the kohen, from your slaughter-offerings of shalom. 33 He who brings-near the blood of the shalom-offerings and the fat, from among the Sons of Aharon — his shall it be, the right thigh as a portion. 34 For the breast of the elevation-offering and the thigh of the contribution, I take from the Children of Yisrael, from their slaughter-offerings of shalom, and I give them to Aharon the kohen and to his sons, as an allotment for the ages, from the Children of Yisrael. 35 This is the anointed-share of Aharon and the anointed-share of his sons from the fire-offerings of YHVH, from the time he brought-them-near to be-kohanim for YHVH, 36 which YHVH commanded to be given them from the time of his anointing them, from the Children of Yisrael — as a law for the ages, throughout their generations.'” 37 This is the Instruction concerning the offering-up, concerning the grain-gift, concerning the ḥattat-offering and concerning the asham-offering, concerning the mandate-offering and concerning the slaughter-offering of shalom 38 that YHVH commanded Mosheh at Har Sinai at the time of his commanding the Children of Yisrael to bring-near their near-offerings to YHVH, in the wilderness of Sinai. |

8 1 YHVH spoke to Mosheh, saying: 2 “Take Aharon and his sons with him, the garments and the oil for anointing, the bull for the ḥattat-offering, the two rams and the basket of matsot; 3 and the entire community, assemble at the entrance to the Ohel Mo’ed.” 4 Mosheh did as YHVH had commanded him. The community assembled at the entrance to the Ohel Mo’ed. 5 Then Mosheh said to the community: “This is the thing that YHVH has commanded to be done.” |

6 Mosheh brought-near Aharon and his sons and washed (him) them with water; 7 he put on him the tunic, he girded him with the sash, he clothed him in the coat, he put on him the efod-vest, he girded him with the designed-band of the efod, investing him in it, 8 he placed on him the ḥoshen/breastpiece, he put into the ḥoshen the Urim and the Tummim, 9 he placed the turban on his head, he placed on the turban, in front of his face, the plate of gold, the sacred-diadem of holiness, as YHVH had commanded Mosheh. |

10 Then Mosheh took the oil for anointing and anointed the dwelling and all that was in it, making-them-holy. 11 He sprinkled some of it on the Mizbe’aḥ, seven times, anointing the Mizbe’aḥ, all its vessels, the basin and its pedestal, to make-them-holy. 12 He poured some of the oil for anointing on the head of Aharon, anointing him, to make-him-holy. 13 Then Mosheh brought-near the sons of Aharon, he clothed them in coats, he girded them with sash(es), and wound them caps, as YHVH had commanded Mosheh. |

14 He brought forward the bull of the ḥattat-offering, and Aharon and his sons leaned their hands upon the head of the bull of the ḥattat-offering, 15 and he slew (it). Mosheh took the blood and put it on the horns of the Mizbe’aḥ, all around, with his finger, (thus) decontaminating the Mizbe’aḥ; and the blood he poured out at the foundation of the Mizbe’aḥ. So he made-it-holy, for effecting-atonement upon it. 16 Then he took all the fat that is about the innards, the extension of the liver, the two kidneys and their fat, and Mosheh turned (them) into smoke on the Mizbe’aḥ. 17 The (rest of the) bull, its skin, its flesh and its dung, he burned in fire, outside the camp, as YHVH had commanded Mosheh. |

18 Then he brought-near the ram for the offering-up; Aharon and his sons leaned their hands upon the head of the ram, 19 and he slew (it). Mosheh dashed the blood against the Mizbe’aḥ, all around. 20 Then the ram he sectioned into its sections, and Mosheh turned into smoke the head, the sections and the suet. 21 Now the innards and the shins he washed in water, and Mosheh turned the entire ram into smoke upon the Mizbe’aḥ. It (was) an offering-up, for a soothing savor, it (was) a fire-offering for YHVH, as YHVH had commanded Mosheh. |

22 Then he brought-near the second ram, the ram for giving-mandate. Aharon and his sons leaned their hands on the head of the ram. 23 and he slew (it). Mosheh took some of its blood and put it on the ridge of the right ear of Aharon, and on the thumb of his right hand, and on the thumb-toe of his right foot. 24 Then he brought-near the sons of Aharon, and Mosheh put some of the blood on the ridge of their right ear, on the thumb of their right hand, and on the thumb-toe of their right foot; then Mosheh dashed the blood on the Mizbe’aḥ, all around. 25 He took the fat — the broad-tail and all the fat that is about the innards, the extension of the liver, the two kidneys and their fat, and the right thigh; 26 and from the basket of matsot that was before the presence of YHVH he took one cake of matsah and one cake of oil bread, and one wafer and put (them) on the fat-parts and on the right thigh. 27 He placed all (of them) on the palms of Aharon and on the palms of his sons, and they elevated them as an elevation-offering, before the presence of YHVH. 28 Then Mosheh took them from their palms and turned them into smoke on the Mizbe’aḥ, along with the offering-up. They are mandate-offerings, for a soothing savor, it is a fire-offering for YHVH. 29 Then Mosheh took the breast and elevated it as an elevation-offering, before the presence of YHVH, from the ram of mandating — for Mosheh it was a portion, as YHVH had commanded Mosheh. |

30 Now Mosheh took some of the oil for anointing and some of the blood that was upon the Mizbe’aḥ and sprinkled (it) on Aharon, on his garments, on his sons and on the garments of his sons with him; (thus) he made-holy Aharon, his garments, his sons and the garments of his sons with him. |

31 Mosheh said to Aharon and to his sons: “Boil the flesh at the entrance to the Ohel Mo’ed, there you are to eat it, along with the bread that is in the basket of mandating, as I have commanded, saying: ‘Aharon and his sons are to eat it!’ 32 What is left of the flesh and of the bread, in fire you are to burn (it). 33 Now from the entrance to the Ohel Mo’ed you are not to go out, for seven days, until the time of fulfilling the days of full-mandating. For seven days (it takes) to fill your hands (in mandating). 34 As has been done this day, YHVH commanded to be done, to effect-atonement for you. 35 At the entrance to the Ohel Mo’ed you are to stay, day and night, for seven days; you are to keep the charge of YHVH, so that you do not die, for thus I have been commanded.” 36 And Aharon and his sons did all the things that YHVH had commanded by the hand of Mosheh. |
The Masoretic text presented here is from Rabbi Dr. Seth (Avi) Kadish’s Miqra al pi ha-Mesorah. For the translation in English, I have adapted the translation of Everett Fox in the Schocken Bible (Everett Fox 1995), mostly to re-Hebraize divine names, place names, and personal names. As in preceding parashot, I have been careful to Hebraize ritual objects in the Mishkan. Instead of Fox’s use of ‘purgation,’ I have used ‘atonement.’ Aside from these, I have made minor punctuation changes. (To buy a print copy of the complete translation of The Schocken Bible vol. 1: The Five Books of Moses, visit Penguin/Random House.) –Aharon N. Varady
