NET Notes: Deu 25:13

¹ tn Heb “a stone and a stone.” The repetition of the singular noun here expresses diversity, as the following phrase indicates. See IBHS 116 §7.2.3c.

² tn Heb “a large and a small,” but since the issue is the weight, “a heavy and a light one” conveys the idea better in English.
