Kejadian 26:14

Ayub 31:25

31:25 if I have rejoiced because of the extent of my wealth,

or because of the great wealth my hand had gained,

[12:5]  ¹ tn Heb “the son of his brother.”

[12:5]  ² tn For the semantic nuance “acquire [property]” for the verb עָשָׂה (’asah), see BDB 795 s.v. עָשָׂה.

[12:5]  ³ tn Heb “went out to go.”

[24:35]  ⁴ tn Heb “great.” In this context the statement refers primarily to Abraham’s material wealth, although reputation and influence are not excluded.

[24:35]  ⁵ tn Heb “and he.” The referent (the Lord) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[26:14]  ⁶ tn Heb “and there was to him.”

[26:14]  ⁷ tn Heb “possessions of sheep.”

[26:14]  ⁸ tn Heb “possessions of cattle.”

[26:14]  ⁹ tn The Hebrew verb translated “became jealous” refers here to intense jealousy or envy that leads to hostile action (see v. 15).

[30:43]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “the man”; Jacob’s name has been supplied in the translation for clarity.

[30:43]  ¹¹ tn Heb “and there were to him.”

[32:5]  ¹² tn Or “I am sending.” The form is a preterite with the vav consecutive; it could be rendered as an English present tense – as the Hebrew perfect/preterite allows – much like an epistolary aorist in Greek. The form assumes the temporal perspective of the one who reads the message.

[32:5]  ¹³ tn The words “this message” are not in the Hebrew text, but have been supplied in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[34:23]  ¹⁴ tn The words “If we do so” are not in the Hebrew text, but are supplied in the translation for clarity and for stylistic reasons.

[47:17]  ¹⁵ tn The definite article is translated here as a possessive pronoun.

[1:3]  ¹⁶ tn The word means “cattle, livestock, possessions” (see also Gen 26:14). Here it includes the livestock, but also the entire substance of his household.

[1:3]  ¹⁷ tn Or “amounted to,” “totaled.” The preterite of הָיָה (hayah, “to be”) is sometimes employed to introduce a total amount or an inventory (see Exod 1:5; Num 3:43).

[1:3]  ¹⁸ tn The word עֲבֻדָּה (’avuddah, “service of household servants”) indicates that he had a very large body of servants, meaning a very large household.

[1:3]  ¹⁹ tn Heb “and that man.”

[1:3]  ²⁰ tn The expression is literally “sons of the east.” The use of the genitive after “sons” in this construction may emphasize their nature (like “sons of belial”); it would refer to them as easterners (like “sons of the south” in contemporary American English). BDB 869 s.v. קֶדֶם says “dwellers in the east.”
