NET Notes

1 tn The word “again” is not in the Hebrew text, but is supplied in the translation for stylistic reasons.

2 tn Heb “it did not again return to him still.” For a study of this section of the flood narrative, see W. O. E. Oesterley, “The Dove with the Olive Leaf (Gen VIII 8–11),” ExpTim 18 (1906/07): 377-78.
