[32:10]  ¹ tn Heb “the loving deeds and faithfulness” (see 24:27, 49).

[32:10]  ² tn Heb “you have done with.”

[32:10]  ³ tn Heb “for with my staff.” The Hebrew word מַקֵל (maqel), traditionally translated “staff,” has been rendered as “walking stick” because a “staff” in contemporary English refers typically to the support personnel in an organization.

[32:10]  ⁴ tn Heb “this Jordan.”

[98:3]  ⁵ tn Heb “he remembers his loyal love and his faithfulness to the house of Israel.”

[98:3]  ⁶ tn Heb “the deliverance of our God,” with “God” being a subjective genitive (= God delivers).

[100:5]  ⁷ tn Or “is forever.”

[100:5]  ⁸ tn Heb “and to a generation and a generation [is] his faithfulness.”

[7:20]  ⁹ tn More literally, “You will extend loyalty to Jacob, and loyal love to Abraham.

[7:20]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “our fathers.” The Hebrew term refers here to more distant ancestors, not immediate parents.

[7:20]  ¹¹ tn Heb “which you swore [or, “pledged”] to our fathers from days of old.”

[1:17]  ¹² tn “But” is not in the Greek text, but has been supplied to indicate the implied contrast between the Mosaic law and grace through Jesus Christ. John 1:17 seems to indicate clearly that the Old Covenant (Sinai) was being contrasted with the New. In Jewish sources the Law was regarded as a gift from God (Josephus, Ant. 3.8.10 [3.223]; Pirqe Avot 1.1; Sifre Deut 31:4 §305). Further information can be found in T. F. Glasson, Moses in the Fourth Gospel (SBT).
