[35:5]  ¹ tn Heb “from with you.”

[35:5]  ² tn “Heart” is a genitive of specification, clarifying in what way they might be “willing.” The heart refers to their will, their choices.

[35:5]  ³ tn The verb has a suffix that is the direct object, but the suffixed object is qualified by the second accusative: “let him bring it, an offering.”

[35:5]  ⁴ tn The phrase is literally “the offering of Yahweh”; it could be a simple possessive, “Yahweh’s offering,” but a genitive that indicates the indirect object is more appropriate.

[35:21]  ⁵ tn Heb “man.”

[35:21]  ⁶ tn The verb means “lift up, bear, carry.” Here the subject is “heart” or will, and so the expression describes one moved within to act.

[35:21]  ⁷ tn Heb “his spirit made him willing.” The verb is used in Scripture for the freewill offering that people brought (Lev 7).

[35:21]  ⁸ tn Literally “the garments of holiness,” the genitive is the attributive genitive, marking out what type of garments these were.

[35:29]  ⁹ tn Heb “by the hand of.”

[35:29]  ¹⁰ tn Here “them” has been supplied.
