¹ tn Heb “Ishmael his son and all born in his house and all bought with money, every male among the men of the house of Abraham.”

² tn Heb “circumcised the flesh of their foreskin.” The Hebrew expression is somewhat pleonastic and has been simplified in the translation.

³ tn Heb “said.”

⁴ tn Heb “Otherwise he will die, also he, like his brothers.”

⁵ tn Heb “all which they were doing there, he was doing.” This probably means that Joseph was in charge of everything that went on in the prison.

⁷ tn Heb “tell Pharaoh and say to him.”
