Genesis 22:6

22:6 Abraham took the wood for the burnt offering and put it on his son Isaac. Then he took the fire and the knife in his hand, ¹  and the two of them walked on together.

Genesis 25:5

25:5 Everything he owned Abraham left to his son Isaac.

Genesis 30:15

30:15 But Leah replied, ²  “Wasn’t it enough that you’ve taken away my husband? Would you take away my son’s mandrakes too?” “All right,” ³  Rachel said, “he may sleep ⁴  with you tonight in exchange for your son’s mandrakes.”

Genesis 36:39

36:39 When Baal-Hanan the son of Achbor died, Hadad ⁵  reigned in his place; the name of his city was Pau. ⁶  His wife’s name was Mehetabel, the daughter of Matred, the daughter of Me-Zahab.

¹ sn He took the fire and the knife in his hand. These details anticipate the sacrifice that lies ahead.

² tn Heb “and she said to her”; the referent of the pronoun “she” (Leah) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

³ tn Heb “therefore.”

⁴ tn Heb “lie down.” The expression “lie down with” in this context (here and in the following verse) refers to sexual intercourse. The imperfect verbal form has a permissive nuance here.

³ tc Most mss of the MT read “Hadar” here; “Hadad” is the reading found in some Hebrew mss, the Samaritan Pentateuch, and Syriac (cf. also 1 Chr 1:50).

⁴ tn The name of the city is given as “Pai” in 1 Chr 1:50.
