[20:4]  ¹ tn Heb “and why….” The conjunction seems to be recording another thing that the people said in their complaint against Moses.

[20:4]  ² tn The clause uses the infinitive construct with the lamed (ל) preposition. The clause would be a result clause in this sentence: “Why have you brought us here…with the result that we will all die?”

[22:19]  ³ tn In this case “lodge” is not used, but “remain, reside” (שְׁבוּ, shÿvu).

[32:7]  ⁵ tn Heb “heart.” So also in v. 9.
