Laws Concerning War with Distant Enemies

Ulangan 28:36

28:36 The Lord will force you and your king ¹³  whom you will appoint over you to go away to a people whom you and your ancestors have not known, and you will serve other gods of wood and stone there.

[3:21]  ¹ tn Heb “the Lord.” The translation uses the pronoun (“he”) for stylistic reasons, to avoid redundancy.

[3:21]  ² tn Heb “which you are crossing over there.”

[6:3]  ³ tn Heb “may multiply greatly” (so NASB, NRSV); the words “in number” have been supplied in the translation for clarity.

[6:3]  ⁴ tn Heb “fathers” (also in vv. 10, 18, 23).

[8:18]  ⁵ tc Smr and Lucian add “Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob,” the standard way of rendering this almost stereotypical formula (cf. Deut 1:8; 6:10; 9:5, 27; 29:13; 30:20; 34:4). The MT’s harder reading presumptively argues for its originality, however.

[9:1]  ⁶ tn Heb “fortified to the heavens” (so NRSV); NLT “cities with walls that reach to the sky.” This is hyperbole.

[15:7]  ⁷ tn Heb “one of your brothers” (so NASB); NAB “one of your kinsmen”; NRSV “a member of your community.” See the note at v. 2.

[15:7]  ⁸ tn Heb “gates.”

[15:7]  ⁹ tn Heb “withdraw your hand.” Cf. NIV “hardhearted or tightfisted” (NRSV and NLT similar).

[15:7]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “from your needy brother.”

[20:1]  ¹¹ tn Heb “horse and chariot.”

[20:1]  ¹² tn Heb “people.”

[28:36]  ¹³ tc The LXX reads the plural “kings.”
