[24:22]  ¹ sn A beka weighed about 5-6 grams (0.2 ounce).

[24:22]  ² sn A shekel weighed about 11.5 grams (0.4 ounce) although weights varied locally, so these bracelets weighed about 4 ounces (115 grams).

[24:22]  ³ tn The words “and gave them to her” are not in the Hebrew text, but are implied.

[24:30]  ⁴ tn Heb “And it was when he saw the nose ring and the bracelets on the arms of his sister.” The word order is altered in the translation for the sake of clarity.

[24:30]  ⁵ tn Heb “and when he heard the words of Rebekah his sister, saying.”

[24:30]  ⁶ tn Heb “and look, he was standing.” The disjunctive clause with the participle following the particle הִנֵּה (hinneh) invites the audience to view the scene through Laban’s eyes.

[24:47]  ⁷ tn Heb “whom Milcah bore to him.” The referent (Nahor) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[24:53]  ⁸ tn Heb “the servant”; the noun has been replaced by the pronoun (“he”) in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[45:23]  ⁹ tn Heb “according to this.”
