[4:13]  ¹ sn This is the first occurrence of the word בְּרִית (bÿrit, “covenant”) in the Book of Deuteronomy but it appears commonly hereafter (4:23, 31; 5:2, 3; 7:9, 12; 8:18; 9:9, 10, 11, 15; 10:2, 4, 5, 8; 17:2; 29:1, 9, 12, 14, 15, 18, 21, 25; 31:9, 16, 20, 25, 26; 33:9). Etymologically, it derives from the notion of linking or yoking together. See M. Weinfeld, TDOT 2:255.

[4:13]  ² tn Heb “the ten words.”

[6:24]  ³ tn Heb “the Lord our God.” See note on the word “his” in v. 17.

[11:13]  ⁴ tn Heb “if hearing, you will hear.” The Hebrew text uses the infinitive absolute to emphasize the verbal idea. The translation renders this emphasis with the word “close.”

[11:13]  ⁵ tn Again, the Hebrew term אָהַב (’ahav) draws attention to the reciprocation of divine love as a condition or sign of covenant loyalty (cf. Deut 6:5).

[11:13]  ⁶ tn Heb “heart and soul” or “heart and being.” See note on the word “being” in Deut 6:5.

[11:22]  ⁷ tn Heb “this commandment.” See note at Deut 5:30.

[11:22]  ⁸ tn Heb “commanding you to do it.” For stylistic reasons, to avoid redundancy, “giving” has been used in the translation and “to do it” has been left untranslated.

[11:22]  ⁹ tn Heb “walk in all his ways” (so KJV, NIV); TEV “do everything he commands.”

[11:28]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “do not listen to,” that is, do not obey.

[11:28]  ¹¹ tn Heb “the commandments of the Lord your God.” The pronoun has been used in the translation for stylistic reasons to avoid redundancy.

[11:28]  ¹² tn Heb “am commanding” (so NASB, NRSV).

[11:28]  ¹³ tn Heb “walk after”; NIV “by following”; NLT “by worshiping.” This is a violation of the first commandment, the most serious of the covenant violations (Deut 5:6-7).

[28:45]  ¹⁴ tn Heb “commanded”; NAB, NIV, TEV “he gave you.”
