[4:12]  ¹ tn The words “was heard” are supplied in the translation to avoid the impression that the voice was seen.

[4:13]  ² sn This is the first occurrence of the word בְּרִית (bÿrit, “covenant”) in the Book of Deuteronomy but it appears commonly hereafter (4:23, 31; 5:2, 3; 7:9, 12; 8:18; 9:9, 10, 11, 15; 10:2, 4, 5, 8; 17:2; 29:1, 9, 12, 14, 15, 18, 21, 25; 31:9, 16, 20, 25, 26; 33:9). Etymologically, it derives from the notion of linking or yoking together. See M. Weinfeld, TDOT 2:255.

[4:13]  ³ tn Heb “the ten words.”

[4:29]  ⁴ tn Or “mind and being.” See Deut 6:5.

[6:24]  ⁵ tn Heb “the Lord our God.” See note on the word “his” in v. 17.

[8:20]  ⁶ tn Heb “so you will perish.”

[8:20]  ⁷ tn Heb “listen to the voice of the Lord your God.” The pronoun has been used in the translation for stylistic reasons to avoid redundancy.

[11:14]  ⁸ tn The words “he promises” do not appear in the Hebrew text but are needed in the translation to facilitate the transition from the condition (v. 13) to the promise and make it clear that the Lord is speaking the words of vv. 14-15.

[11:14]  ⁹ tn Heb “the rain of your land.” In this case the genitive (modifying term) indicates the recipient of the rain.

[11:14]  ¹⁰ sn The autumn and the spring rains. The “former” (יוֹרֶה, yoreh) and “latter” (מַלְקוֹשׁ, malqosh) rains come in abundance respectively in September/October and March/April. Planting of most crops takes place before the former rains fall and the harvests follow the latter rains.

[16:10]  ¹¹ tn The Hebrew phrase חַג שָׁבֻעוֹת (khag shavu’ot) is otherwise known in the OT (Exod 23:16) as קָצִיר (qatsir, “harvest”) and in the NT as πεντηχοστή (penthcosth, “Pentecost”).

[16:10]  ¹² tn Heb “the sufficiency of the offering of your hand.”

[16:10]  ¹³ tn Heb “the Lord your God.” See note on “he” in 16:1.

[16:14]  ¹⁴ tn Heb “in your gates.”

[25:18]  ¹⁵ sn See Exod 17:8-16.

[28:55]  ¹⁶ tn Heb “besiege,” redundant with the noun “siege.”

[28:57]  ¹⁷ tn Heb includes “that which comes out from between her feet.”

[28:57]  ¹⁸ tn Heb “her sons that she will bear.”

[28:57]  ¹⁹ tn Heb includes “in her need for everything.”

[29:15]  ²⁰ tn This is interpreted by some English versions as a reference to generations not yet born (cf. TEV, CEV, NLT).

[29:22]  ²¹ tn Heb “will say and see.” One expects a quotation to appear, but it seems to be omitted. To avoid confusion in the translation, the verb “will say” is omitted.

[30:3]  ²² tn Heb “the Lord your God.” The pronoun has been used in the translation for stylistic reasons to avoid redundancy.

[31:2]  ²³ tn Or “am no longer able to lead you” (NIV, NLT); Heb “am no longer able to go out and come in.”

[32:42]  ²⁴ tn Or “head” (the same Hebrew word can mean “head” in the sense of “leader, chieftain” or “head” in the sense of body part).

[33:21]  ²⁵ tn The Hebrew term מְחֹקֵק (mÿkhoqeq; Poel participle of חָקַק, khaqaq, “to inscribe”) reflects the idea that the recorder of allotments (the “ruler”) is able to set aside for himself the largest and best. See E. H. Merrill, Deuteronomy (NAC), 444-45.

[33:21]  ²⁶ tn Heb “covered in” (if from the root סָפַן, safan; cf. HALOT 764-65 s.v. ספן qal).

[33:21]  ²⁷ tn Heb “heads” (in the sense of chieftains).
