[1:31]  ¹ tn Heb “the Lord your God.” The pronoun (“him”) has been employed in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[2:4]  ² tn Heb “command” (so KJV, NASB); NRSV “charge the people as follows.”

[2:4]  ³ tn Heb “brothers”; NAB “your kinsmen.”

[2:4]  ⁴ sn The descendants of Esau (Heb “sons of Esau”; the phrase also occurs in 2:8, 12, 22, 29). These are the inhabitants of the land otherwise known as Edom, south and east of the Dead Sea. Jacob’s brother Esau had settled there after his bitter strife with Jacob (Gen 36:1-8). “Edom” means “reddish,” probably because of the red sandstone of the region, but also by popular etymology because Esau, at birth, was reddish (Gen 25:25).

[6:1]  ⁵ tn Heb “commandment.” The word מִצְוָה (mitsvah) again is in the singular, serving as a comprehensive term for the whole stipulation section of the book. See note on the word “commandments” in 5:31.

[6:1]  ⁶ tn Heb “where you are going over to possess it” (so NASB); NRSV “that you are about to cross into and occupy.”

[11:8]  ⁷ tn Heb “the commandment.” The singular מִצְוָה (mitsvah, “commandment”) speaks here as elsewhere of the whole corpus of covenant stipulations in Deuteronomy (cf. 6:1, 25; 7:11; 8:1).

[11:8]  ⁸ tn Heb “commanding” (so NASB, NRSV). For stylistic reasons, to avoid redundancy, “giving” has been used in the translation (likewise in vv. 13, 27).

[11:8]  ⁹ tn Heb “which you are crossing over there to possess it.”

[11:9]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “fathers” (also in v. 21).

[16:14]  ¹¹ tn Heb “in your gates.”

[30:18]  ¹² tn The Hebrew text uses the infinitive absolute for emphasis, which the translation indicates with “certainly.”

[30:18]  ¹³ tn Heb “to go there to possess it.”

[31:2]  ¹⁴ tn Or “am no longer able to lead you” (NIV, NLT); Heb “am no longer able to go out and come in.”

[32:35]  ¹⁵ tn Heb “prepared things,” “impending things.” See BDB 800 s.v. עָתִיד.

[32:49]  ¹⁶ sn Abarim. This refers to the high plateau region of the Transjordan, the highest elevation of which is Mount Pisgah (or Nebo; cf. Deut 34:1). See also the note on the name “Pisgah” in Deut 3:17.
