Narrative Interlude

32:44 Then Moses went with Joshua ¹⁹  son of Nun and recited all the words of this song to the people.

[1:4]  ¹ tn Heb “when he struck [or “smote”].”

[1:4]  ² sn See Deut 2:26–3:22.

[1:4]  ³ tn Heb “who lived.”

[1:4]  ⁴ sn Heshbon is probably modern Tell Hesban, about 7.5 mi (12 km) south southwest of Amman, Jordan.

[1:4]  ⁵ tn Heb “who lived.”

[1:4]  ⁶ sn Ashtaroth is probably Tell àAshtarah, about 22 mi (35 km) due east of the Sea of Galilee.

[1:4]  ⁷ sn Edrei is probably modern Deràa, 60 mi (95 km) south of Damascus (see Num 21:33; Josh 12:4; 13:12, 31).

[12:29]  ⁸ tn Heb “dwell in their land” (so NASB). In the Hebrew text vv. 29-30 are one long sentence. For stylistic reasons the translation divides it into two.

[16:9]  ⁹ tn Heb “the seven weeks.” The translation uses a pronoun to avoid redundancy in English.

[20:9]  ¹⁰ tn The Hebrew text includes “to the people,” but this phrase has not been included in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[20:9]  ¹¹ tn Heb “princes of hosts.”

[22:14]  ¹² tn Heb “deeds of things”; NRSV “makes up charges against her”; NIV “slanders her.”

[22:14]  ¹³ tn Heb “brings against her a bad name”; NIV “gives her a bad name.”

[22:14]  ¹⁴ tn Heb “drew near to her.” This is another Hebrew euphemism for having sexual relations.

[23:15]  ¹⁵ tn The Hebrew text includes “from his master,” but this would be redundant in English style.

[32:11]  ¹⁶ tn The prefixed verbal form is an imperfect, indicating habitual or typical behavior. The parallel verb (cf. “hovers” in the next line) is used in the same manner.

[32:11]  ¹⁷ tn Heb “he”; the referent (the Lord) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[32:11]  ¹⁸ tn The form of the suffix on this and the following verb forms (cf. “lifted him up”) indicates that the verbs are preterites, not imperfects. As such they simply state the action factually. The use of the preterite here suggests that the preceding verb (cf. “spread out”) is preterite as well.

[32:44]  ¹⁹ tn Heb “Hoshea” (so KJV, ASV), another name for the same individual (cf. Num 13:8, 16).
