20:5 Did Abraham ¹  not say to me, ‘She is my sister’? And she herself said, ²  ‘He is my brother.’ I have done this with a clear conscience ³  and with innocent hands!”

Kejadian 26:28

[20:5]  ¹ tn Heb “he”; the referent has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[20:5]  ² tn Heb “and she, even she.”

[20:5]  ³ tn Heb “with the integrity of my heart.”

[26:28]  ⁴ tn The infinitive absolute before the verb emphasizes the clarity of their perception.

[26:28]  ⁵ tn Heb “And we said, ‘Let there be.’” The direct discourse in the Hebrew text has been rendered as indirect discourse in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[26:28]  ⁶ tn The pronoun “us” here is inclusive – it refers to the Philistine contingent on the one hand and Isaac on the other.

[26:28]  ⁷ tn The pronoun “us” here is exclusive – it refers to just the Philistine contingent (the following “you” refers to Isaac).

[26:28]  ⁸ tn The translation assumes that the cohortative expresses their request. Another option is to understand the cohortative as indicating resolve: “We want to make.’”
