¹ tn Heb “in the mountain.” The demonstrative pronoun has been used in the translation for stylistic reasons.

² tn Heb “leaven must not be seen among you in all your border.”

³ tn Heb “remain all night until the morning” (so KJV, ASV). This has been simplified in the translation for stylistic reasons.

³ tn The words “on that day” are not in the Hebrew text; they are supplied in the translation for clarification (cf. TEV, NLT).
