[8:7]  ¹ tn Heb “and it went out, going out and returning.” The Hebrew verb יָצָא (yatsa’), translated here “flying,” is modified by two infinitives absolute indicating that the raven went back and forth.

[24:21]  ² tn Heb “to know.”

[24:21]  ³ tn The Hebrew term צָלָה (tsalah), meaning “to make successful” in the Hiphil verbal stem, is a key term in the story (see vv. 40, 42, 56).

[39:10]  ⁴ tn The verse begins with the temporal indicator, followed by the infinitive construct with the preposition כְּ (kÿ). This clause could therefore be taken as temporal.

[39:10]  ⁵ tn Heb “listen to.”

[39:10]  ⁶ tn Heb “to lie beside her to be with her.” Here the expression “to lie beside” is a euphemism for sexual intercourse.

[39:21]  ⁷ tn Heb “and he extended to him loyal love.”

[39:21]  ⁸ tn Or “the chief jailer” (also in the following verses).

[45:6]  ⁹ tn Heb “the famine [has been] in the midst of.”
