[11:18]  sn A quotation from Gen 21:12.

[6:7]  ² tn Grk “comes upon.”

[7:16]  ⁹ tn Grk “a law of a fleshly command.”

[7:6]  ¹⁰ tn Grk “the one”; in the translation the referent (Melchizedek) has been specified for clarity.

[7:6]  ¹¹ tn Grk “is not descended from them.”

[7:6]  ¹² tn Or “a tenth part.”

[7:6]  ¹³ sn The verbs “collected…and blessed” emphasize the continuing effect of the past actions, i.e., Melchizedek’s importance.

[6:14]  ¹⁴ tn Grk “in blessing I will bless you and in multiplying I will multiply you,” the Greek form of a Hebrew idiom showing intensity.

[6:14]  sn A quotation from Gen 22:17.

[11:11]  ¹⁸ tn Grk “past the time of maturity.”

[11:11]  ¹⁹ tn Grk “power to deposit seed.” Though it is not as likely, some construe this phrase to mean “power to conceive seed,” making the whole verse about Sarah: “by faith, even though Sarah herself was barren and too old, she received ability to conceive, because she regarded the one who had given the promise to be trustworthy.”

[1:6]  ²⁰ tn Or “And again when he brings.” The translation adopted in the text looks forward to Christ’s second coming to earth. Some take “again” to introduce the quotation (as in 1:5) and understand this as Christ’s first coming, but this view does not fit well with Heb 2:7. Others understand it as his exaltation/ascension to heaven, but this takes the phrase “into the world” in an unlikely way.

[12:19]  ²⁸ tn Grk “a voice…from which those who heard begged that a word not be added to them.”
