Kejadian 3:22
Konteks3:22 And the Lord God said, “Now 1 that the man has become like one of us, 2 knowing 3 good and evil, he must not be allowed 4 to stretch out his hand and take also from the tree of life and eat, and live forever.”
Kejadian 27:33
Konteks27:33 Isaac began to shake violently 5 and asked, “Then who else hunted game and brought it to me? I ate all of it just before you arrived, and I blessed him. 6 He will indeed be blessed!”
[3:22] 1 tn The particle הֵן (hen) introduces a foundational clause, usually beginning with “since, because, now.”
[3:22] 2 sn The man has become like one of us. See the notes on Gen 1:26 and 3:5.
[3:22] 3 tn The infinitive explains in what way the man had become like God: “knowing good and evil.”
[3:22] 4 tn Heb “and now, lest he stretch forth.” Following the foundational clause, this clause forms the main point. It is introduced with the particle פֶּן (pen) which normally introduces a negative purpose, “lest….” The construction is elliptical; something must be done lest the man stretch forth his hand. The translation interprets the point intended.
[27:33] 5 tn Heb “and Isaac trembled with a great trembling to excess.” The verb “trembled” is joined with a cognate accusative, which is modified by an adjective “great,” and a prepositional phrase “to excess.” All of this is emphatic, showing the violence of Isaac’s reaction to the news.
[27:33] 6 tn Heb “Who then is he who hunted game and brought [it] to me so that I ate from all before you arrived and blessed him?”
