[10:9]  ¹ tn The Hebrew word for “hunt” is צַיִד (tsayid), which is used on occasion for hunting men (1 Sam 24:12; Jer 16:16; Lam 3:15).

[10:9]  ² tn Another option is to take the divine name here, לִפְנֵי יִהוָה (lifne yÿhvah, “before the Lord [YHWH]”), as a means of expressing the superlative degree. In this case one may translate “Nimrod was the greatest hunter in the world.”

[14:15]  ³ tn The Hebrew text simply has “night” as an adverbial accusative.

[14:15]  ⁴ tn Heb “he”; the referent (Abram) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[14:15]  ⁵ tn Heb “he divided himself…he and his servants.”

[14:15]  ⁶ tn Heb “left.” Directions in ancient Israel were given in relation to the east rather than the north.

[26:34]  ⁷ tn The sentence begins with the temporal indicator (“and it happened”), making this clause subordinate to the next.

[26:34]  ⁸ tn Heb “the son of forty years.”

[26:34]  ⁹ tn Heb “took as a wife.”

[36:24]  ¹⁰ tn The meaning of this Hebrew term is uncertain; Syriac reads “water” and Vulgate reads “hot water.”
