v. 2c – For our preferred reading of the final relative clause, שֶׁ֝יֹּרֵ֗ד עַל־פִּ֥י מִדּוֹתָֽיו, modifying the good oil (כַּשֶּׁ֤מֶן הַטּ֨וֹב׀) from the beginning of the verse, see the NET's "It is like fine oil poured on the head which flows down the beard—Aaron's beard, and then flows down his garments" (cf. CJB, CSB, DHH, ESV, LUT, NABRE, NASB, NBS, NFC, NIV, PDV, REB, RVC, SG21, TOB).[1] For alternative interpretation, which understands the relative clause to modify the immediately preceding beard of Aaron (זְקַֽן־אַהֲרֹ֑ן), see the KJV's "It is like the precious ointment upon the head that ran down upon the beard, even Aaron’s beard that went down to the skirts of his garments" (cf. CEB, ELB, NJPS, ZÜR).[2]

  1. ↑ Cf. Ḥakham's clarification: כשמן שירד (מן הזקן) על פי מדותיו "like oil that went down from the beard upon the collar of his garments" (1979, 496). Note that, as Ḥakham's paraphrase, 11Q5 indeed reads ירד in this clause, perhaps to be interpreted as a qatal, since the overt יורד is found in v. 3.
  2. ↑ Note that Symmachus's translation lacks the first הַזָּקָ֥ן and renders simply "upon the beard of Aaron" (cf. DHH, NFC, PDV, RVC).
