[2:5]  ¹ sn Mount Seir is synonymous with Edom.

[2:21]  ² tn Heb “them”; the referent (the Rephaites) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[2:21]  ³ tn Heb “them”; the referent (the Ammonites) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[5:29]  ⁴ tn Heb “keep” (so KJV, NAB, NIV, NRSV).

[25:6]  ⁵ tn Heb “and it will be that.”

[25:6]  ⁶ tn Heb “the firstborn.” This refers to the oldest male child.

[29:15]  ⁷ tn This is interpreted by some English versions as a reference to generations not yet born (cf. TEV, CEV, NLT).

[29:22]  ⁸ 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.

[29:29]  ⁹ tn Heb “sons” (so NASB); KJV, ASV, NIV, NRSV “children.”

[32:5]  ¹⁰ tc The 3rd person masculine singular שָׁחַת (shakhat) is rendered as 3rd person masculine plural by Smr, a reading supported by the plural suffix on מוּם (mum, “defect”) as well as the plural of בֵּן (ben, “sons”).

[32:5]  tn Heb “have acted corruptly” (so NASB, NIV, NLT); NRSV “have dealt falsely.”

[32:5]  ¹¹ tn Heb “(they are) not his sons.”

[32:5]  ¹² tn Heb “defect” (so NASB). This highly elliptical line suggests that Israel’s major fault was its failure to act like God’s people; in fact, they acted quite the contrary.

[32:5]  ¹³ tn Heb “twisted,” “crooked.” See Ps 18:26.

[32:20]  ¹⁴ tn Heb “I will hide my face from them.”

[32:20]  ¹⁵ tn Heb “sons” (so NAB, NASB); TEV “unfaithful people.”

[33:13]  ¹⁶ tn Heb “from the harvest of the heavens.” The referent appears to be good crops produced by the rain that falls from the sky.
