[4:14]  ¹ tn Heb “feared.”

[4:14]  ² tn Heb “all the days of his life.”

[4:14]  ³ tn Heb “had feared.”

[5:2]  ⁴ tn Heb “return, circumcise the sons of Israel a second time.” The Hebrew term שׁוּב (shuv, “return”) is used here in an adverbial sense to indicate the repetition of an action.

[8:9]  ⁷ tn Heb “and they stayed between Bethel and Ai, west of Ai.”

[8:9]  ⁸ tn Heb “in the midst of the people.”

[9:21]  ⁹ tc Heb “and the leaders said to them.” The LXX omits the words “and the leaders said to them.”

[9:21]  ¹⁰ tn The vav (ו) consecutive construction in the Hebrew text suggests that the narrative resumes at this point. The LXX reads here, “and they will be,” understanding what follows to be a continuation of the leaders’ words rather than a comment by the narrator.

[9:21]  ¹¹ tn Heb “as the leaders said to them.”

[11:14]  ¹² tn Heb “but all the people they struck down with the edge of the sword until they destroyed them.”

[13:33]  ¹³ tn Heb “Moses did not assign an inheritance.” The word “land” has been supplied in the translation to clarify what the inheritance consisted of.

[22:23]  ²⁰ tn Or “peace offerings.”

[23:10]  ²³ tn Heb “for the Lord your God, he [is] the one who fights for you.”
