[2:37]  ¹ sn Wadi Jabbok. Now known as the Zerqa River, this is a major tributary of the Jordan that normally served as a boundary between Ammon and Gad (Deut 3:16).

[10:11]  ² tn Heb “the Lord.” See note on “he” in 10:4.

[10:11]  ³ tn Heb “before” (so KJV, ASV); NAB, NRSV “at the head of.”

[10:11]  ⁴ tn After the imperative these subordinated jussive forms (with prefixed vav) indicate purpose or result.

[10:11]  ⁵ tn Heb “fathers” (also in vv. 15, 22).

[12:27]  ⁶ sn These other sacrifices would be so-called peace or fellowship offerings whose ritual required a different use of the blood from that of burnt (sin and trespass) offerings (cf. Lev 3; 7:11-14, 19-21).

[12:27]  ⁷ tn Heb “on the altar of the Lord your God.” The pronoun has been used in the translation for stylistic reasons to avoid redundancy.

[15:16]  ⁸ tn Heb “he”; the referent (the indentured servant introduced in v. 12) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[15:16]  ⁹ tn Heb “go out from.” The imperfect verbal form indicates the desire of the subject here.

[16:2]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “sacrifice the Passover” (so NASB). The word “animal” has been supplied in the translation for clarity.

[16:2]  ¹¹ tn Heb “the Lord.” See note on “he” in the previous verse.

[16:4]  ¹² tn Heb “leaven must not be seen among you in all your border.”

[16:4]  ¹³ tn Heb “remain all night until the morning” (so KJV, ASV). This has been simplified in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[19:21]  ¹⁴ sn This kind of justice is commonly called lex talionis or “measure for measure” (cf. Exod 21:23-25; Lev 24:19-20). It is likely that it is the principle that is important and not always a strict application. That is, the punishment should fit the crime and it may do so by the payment of fines or other suitable and equitable compensation (cf. Exod 22:21; Num 35:31). See T. S. Frymer-Kensky, “Tit for Tat: The Principle of Equal Retribution in Near Eastern and Biblical Law,” BA 43 (1980): 230-34.

[20:7]  ¹⁵ tn Heb “Who [is] the man.”

[20:11]  ¹⁶ tn Heb “if it answers you peace.”

[20:11]  ¹⁷ tn Heb “become as a vassal and will serve you.” The Hebrew term translated slaves (מַס, mas) refers either to Israelites who were pressed into civil service, especially under Solomon (1 Kgs 5:27; 9:15, 21; 12:18), or (as here) to foreigners forced as prisoners of war to become slaves to Israel. The Gibeonites exemplify this type of servitude (Josh 9:3-27; cf. Josh 16:10; 17:13; Judg 1:28, 30-35; Isa 31:8; Lam 1:1).

[21:1]  ¹⁸ tn Heb “slain [one].” The term חָלָל (khalal) suggests something other than a natural death (cf. Num 19:16; 23:24; Jer 51:52; Ezek 26:15; 30:24; 31:17-18).

[21:1]  ¹⁹ tn The Hebrew text includes “to possess it,” but this has not been included in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[21:1]  ²⁰ tn Heb “struck,” but in context a fatal blow is meant; cf. NLT “who committed the murder.”

[22:4]  ²¹ tn Heb “you must not see.” See note at 22:1.

[22:4]  ²² tn Heb “and (must not) hide yourself from them.”

[22:4]  ²³ tn The Hebrew text uses the infinitive absolute for emphasis, which the translation indicates with “be sure.”

[22:4]  ²⁴ tn Heb “help him to lift them up.” In keeping with English style the singular is used in the translation, and the referent (“the animal”) has been specified for clarity.

[22:22]  ²⁵ tn Heb “lying with” (so KJV, NASB), a Hebrew idiom for sexual relations.

[22:22]  ²⁶ tn Heb “a woman married to a husband.”

[22:22]  ²⁷ tn Heb “burn.” See note on the phrase “purge out” in Deut 21:21.

[23:13]  ²⁸ tn Heb “sit.” This expression is euphemistic.

[23:13]  ²⁹ tn Heb “with it”; the referent (the spade mentioned at the beginning of the verse) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[23:13]  ³⁰ tn Heb “what comes from you,” a euphemism.

[24:14]  ³¹ tn Heb “your brothers,” but not limited only to actual siblings; cf. NASB “your (+ own NAB) countrymen.”

[24:14]  ³² tn Heb “who are in your land in your gates.” The word “living” is supplied in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[26:10]  ³³ tn Heb “the Lord your God.” See note on “he” in 26:2.
