Kejadian 49:24

49:24 But his bow will remain steady,

and his hands ⁴  will be skillful;

because of the hands of the Mighty One of Jacob,

because of ⁵  the Shepherd, the Rock ⁶  of Israel,

[16:15]  ¹ tn Heb “and Abram called the name of his son whom Hagar bore, Ishmael.”

[16:15]  sn Whom Abram named Ishmael. Hagar must have informed Abram of what the angel had told her. See the note on the name “Ishmael” in 16:11.

[17:15]  ² tn Heb “[As for] Sarai your wife, you must not call her name Sarai, for Sarah [will be] her name.”

[17:15]  ³ sn Sarah. The name change seems to be a dialectical variation, both spellings meaning “princess” or “queen.” Like the name Abram, the name Sarai symbolized the past. The new name Sarah, like the name Abraham, would be a reminder of what God intended to do for Sarah in the future.

[49:24]  ⁴ tn Heb “the arms of his hands.”

[49:24]  ⁵ tn Heb “from there,” but the phrase should be revocalized and read “from [i.e., because of] the name of.”

[49:24]  ⁶ tn Or “Stone.”
