[6:21]  ¹ tn The verb is a direct imperative: “And you, take for yourself.” The form stresses the immediate nature of the instruction; the pronoun underscores the directness.

[6:21]  ² tn Heb “from all food,” meaning “some of every kind of food.”

[6:21]  ³ tn Or “will be eaten.”

[6:21]  ⁴ tn Heb “and gather it to you.”

[7:16]  ⁵ tn Heb “Those that went in, male and female from all flesh they went in.”

[8:12]  ⁶ tn The word “again” is not in the Hebrew text, but is supplied in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[8:12]  ⁷ tn Heb “it did not again return to him still.” For a study of this section of the flood narrative, see W. O. E. Oesterley, “The Dove with the Olive Leaf (Gen VIII 8–11),” ExpTim 18 (1906/07): 377-78.

[20:8]  ⁸ tn Heb “And Abimelech rose early in the morning and he summoned.”

[20:8]  ⁹ tn The verb קָרָא (qara’) followed by the preposition לְ (lamed) means “to summon.”

[20:8]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “And he spoke all these things in their ears.”

[20:8]  ¹¹ tn Heb “the men.” This has been replaced by the pronoun “they” in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[25:30]  ¹² tn The rare term לָעַט (la’at), translated “feed,” is used in later Hebrew for feeding animals (see Jastrow, 714). If this nuance was attached to the word in the biblical period, then it may depict Esau in a negative light, comparing him to a hungry animal. Famished Esau comes in from the hunt, only to enter the trap. He can only point at the red stew and ask Jacob to feed him.

[25:30]  ¹³ tn The verb has no expressed subject and so is given a passive translation.

[25:30]  ¹⁴ sn Esau’s descendants would eventually be called Edom. Edom was the place where they lived, so-named probably because of the reddish nature of the hills. The writer can use the word “red” to describe the stew that Esau gasped for to convey the nature of Esau and his descendants. They were a lusty, passionate, and profane people who lived for the moment. Again, the wordplay is meant to capture the “omen in the nomen.”

[26:31]  ¹⁵ tn Heb “and they got up early and they swore an oath, a man to his brother.”

[26:31]  ¹⁶ tn Heb “and they went from him in peace.”

[42:9]  ¹⁷ sn You are spies. Joseph wanted to see how his brothers would react if they were accused of spying.

[42:9]  ¹⁸ tn Heb “to see the nakedness of the land you have come.”

[42:19]  ¹⁹ tn Heb “bound in the house of your prison.”

[42:19]  ²⁰ tn The disjunctive clause is circumstantial-temporal.

[42:19]  ²¹ tn Heb “[for] the hunger of your households.”

[43:27]  ²² tn Heb “concerning peace.”

[44:5]  ²³ tn Heb “Is this not what my master drinks from.” The word “cup” is not in the Hebrew text, but is obviously the referent of “this,” and so has been supplied in the translation for clarity.

[44:5]  ²⁴ tn Heb “and he, divining, divines with it.” The infinitive absolute is emphatic, stressing the importance of the cup to Joseph.

[44:5]  ²⁵ tn Heb “you have caused to be evil what you have done.”

[47:25]  ²⁶ tn Heb “we find favor in the eyes of my lord.” Some interpret this as a request, “may we find favor in the eyes of my lord.”

[47:25]  ²⁷ sn Slaves. See the note on this word in v. 21.
