[8:15]  ³ tn Heb “flaming serpents”; KJV, NASB “fiery serpents”; NAB “saraph serpents.” This figure of speech (metonymy) probably describes the venomous and painful results of snakebite. The feeling from such an experience would be like a burning fire (שָׂרָף, saraf).

[8:15]  ⁴ tn Heb “the one who brought out for you water.” In the Hebrew text this continues the preceding sentence, but the translation begins a new sentence here for stylistic reasons.

[12:12]  ⁵ tn Heb “within your gates” (so KJV, NASB); NAB “who belongs to your community.”

[12:20]  ⁸ tn Heb “according to all the desire of your soul you may eat meat.”

[18:22]  ⁹ tn Heb “the Lord’s.” See note on the word “his” in v. 5.

[30:20]  ¹⁶ tn Heb “he is your life and the length of your days to live.”

[31:17]  ¹⁷ tn Heb “on that day.” This same expression also appears later in the verse and in v. 18.
