[13:7]  ⁴ tn Heb “now apportion this land as an inheritance.”

[22:3]  ⁷ tn Heb “your brothers” (also in vv. 4, 7), but this does not refer to siblings or necessarily even to relatives. It refers to the Israelites of the remaining tribes.

[22:3]  ⁸ tn Heb “these many days.”

[22:3]  ⁹ tn Heb “you have kept the charge of the command of the Lord your God.”
