[18:28]  ¹ tn The Hebrew verb שָׁחַת (shakhat, “to destroy”) was used earlier to describe the effect of the flood.

[18:28]  ² tn Heb “because of five.”

[19:12]  ³ tn Heb “the men,” referring to the angels inside Lot’s house. The word “visitors” has been supplied in the translation for clarity.

[19:12]  ⁴ tn Heb “Yet who [is there] to you here?”

[19:12]  ⁵ tn The words “Do you have” are supplied in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[19:12]  ⁶ tn Heb “a son-in-law and your sons and your daughters and anyone who (is) to you in the city.”

[19:12]  ⁷ tn Heb “the place.” The Hebrew article serves here as a demonstrative.

[19:34]  ⁸ tn Heb “the firstborn.”

[19:34]  ⁹ tn Heb “Look, I lied down with my father. Let’s make him drink wine again tonight.”

[19:34]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “And go, lie down with him and we will keep alive from our father descendants.”

[31:32]  ¹⁴ tn The disjunctive clause (introduced here by a vav [ו] conjunction) provides supplemental material that is important to the story. Since this material is parenthetical in nature, it has been placed in parentheses in the translation.

[32:10]  ¹⁶ tn Heb “you have done with.”

[32:10]  ¹⁷ tn Heb “for with my staff.” The Hebrew word מַקֵל (maqel), traditionally translated “staff,” has been rendered as “walking stick” because a “staff” in contemporary English refers typically to the support personnel in an organization.

[32:10]  ¹⁸ tn Heb “this Jordan.”

[38:11]  ¹⁹ tn Heb “said.”

[38:11]  ²⁰ tn Heb “Otherwise he will die, also he, like his brothers.”

[38:11]  sn I don’t want him to die like his brothers. This clause explains that Judah had no intention of giving Shelah to Tamar for the purpose of the levirate marriage. Judah apparently knew the nature of his sons, and feared that God would be angry with the third son and kill him as well.
