[2:18]  ¹ sn Ar. See note on this word in Deut 2:9.

[4:24]  ² tn The juxtaposition of the Hebrew terms אֵשׁ (’esh, “fire”) and קַנָּא (qanna’, “jealous”) is interesting in light of Deut 6:15 where the Lord is seen as a jealous God whose anger bursts into a destructive fire. For God to be “jealous” means that his holiness and uniqueness cannot tolerate pretended or imaginary rivals. It is not petty envy but response to an act of insubordination that must be severely judged (see H. Peels, NIDOTTE 3:937-40).

[9:9]  ³ tn Heb “in the mountain.” The demonstrative pronoun has been used in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[16:22]  ⁴ sn Sacred pillar. This refers to the stelae (stone pillars; the Hebrew term is מַצֵּבֹת, matsevot) associated with Baal worship, perhaps to mark a spot hallowed by an alleged visitation of the gods. See also Deut 7:5.

[26:12]  ⁵ tn Heb includes “the tithes of.” This has not been included in the translation to avoid redundancy.

[26:12]  ⁶ tn The terms “Levite, resident foreigner, orphan, and widow” are collective singulars in the Hebrew text (also in v. 13).

[26:12]  ⁷ tn Heb “gates.”

[33:4]  ⁸ tn The Hebrew term תּוֹרָה (torah) here should be understood more broadly as instruction.
