NET Notes: Num 15:14

¹ tn The word גּוּר (gur) was traditionally translated “to sojourn,” i.e., to live temporarily in a land. Here the two words are from the root: “if a sojourner sojourns.”

² tn Heb “in your midst.”

³ tn The Hebrew text just has “to your generations,” but it means in the future.

⁴ tn The imperfect tenses must reflect the responsibility to comply with the law, and so the classifications of instruction or obligation may be applied.
