[1:24]  ¹ tn Or “the Wadi Eshcol” (so NAB).

[1:24]  sn The Eshcol Valley is a verdant valley near Hebron, still famous for its viticulture (cf. Num 13:22-23). The Hebrew name “Eshcol” means “trestle,” that is, the frame on which grape vines grow.

[1:45]  ² tn Heb “the Lord.” The pronoun (“he”) has been employed in the translation here for stylistic reasons, to avoid redundancy.

[1:45]  ³ tn Heb “did not hear your voice and did not turn an ear to you.”

[3:3]  ⁴ tn Heb “was left to him.” The final phrase “to him” is redundant in English and has been left untranslated.

[4:49]  ⁵ sn The sea of the Arabah refers to the Dead Sea, also known as the Salt Sea in OT times (cf. Deut 3:17).

[4:49]  ⁶ tn The meaning of the Hebrew term אַשְׁדֹּת (’ashdot) is unclear. It is usually translated either “slopes” (ASV, NAB, NIV, NRSV, NLT) or “watershed” (NEB).

[8:6]  ⁷ tn Heb “the commandments of the Lord your God.” The pronoun has been used in the translation for stylistic reasons to avoid redundancy.

[8:6]  ⁸ tn Heb “by walking in his ways.” The “ways” of the Lord refer here to his moral standards as reflected in his commandments. The verb “walk” is used frequently in the Bible (both OT and NT) for one’s moral and ethical behavior.

[11:1]  ⁹ tn This collocation of technical terms for elements of the covenant text lends support to its importance and also signals a new section of paraenesis in which Moses will exhort Israel to covenant obedience. The Hebrew term מִשְׁמָרוֹת (mishmarot, “obligations”) sums up the three terms that follow – חֻקֹּת (khuqot), מִשְׁפָּטִים (mishppatim), and מִצְוֹת (mitsot).

[12:23]  ¹⁰ sn The blood is life itself. This is a figure of speech (metonymy) in which the cause or means (the blood) stands for the result or effect (life). That is, life depends upon the existence and circulation of blood, a truth known empirically but not scientifically tested and proved until the 17th century a.d. (cf. Lev 17:11).

[13:14]  ¹¹ tc Theodotian adds “in Israel,” perhaps to broaden the matter beyond the local village.

[16:20]  ¹² tn Heb “justice, justice.” The repetition is emphatic; one might translate as “pure justice” or “unadulterated justice” (cf. NLT “true justice”).

[19:3]  ¹³ tn Heb “border.”

[21:7]  ¹⁴ tn Heb “our eyes.” This is a figure of speech known as synecdoche in which the part (the eyes) is put for the whole (the entire person).

[21:7]  ¹⁵ tn Heb “seen”; the implied object (the crime committed) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[22:13]  ¹⁶ tn Heb “goes to her,” a Hebrew euphemistic idiom for sexual relations.

[22:13]  ¹⁷ tn Heb “hate.” See note on the word “other” in Deut 21:15. Cf. NAB “comes to dislike”; NASB “turns against”; TEV “decides he doesn’t want.”

[22:14]  ¹⁸ tn Heb “deeds of things”; NRSV “makes up charges against her”; NIV “slanders her.”

[22:14]  ¹⁹ tn Heb “brings against her a bad name”; NIV “gives her a bad name.”

[22:14]  ²⁰ tn Heb “drew near to her.” This is another Hebrew euphemism for having sexual relations.

[24:13]  ²¹ tn The Hebrew text uses the infinitive absolute for emphasis, which the translation seeks to reflect with “by all means.”

[24:13]  ²² tn Or “righteous” (so NIV, NLT).

[34:12]  ²³ tn Heb “strong hand.”

[34:12]  ²⁴ tn The Hebrew text of v. 12 reads literally, “with respect to all the strong hand and with respect to all the awesome greatness which Moses did before the eyes of all Israel.”
