25:24 When the time came for Rebekah to give birth, 4 there were 5 twins in her womb.
1 tn Heb “The days of Adam.”
2 tn Heb “he fathered.”
3 tn The word “other” is not in the Hebrew text, but is supplied for stylistic reasons.
4 tn Heb “And her days were filled to give birth.”
5 tn Heb “look!” By the use of the particle הִנֵּה (hinneh, “look”), the narrator invites the audience to view the scene as if they were actually present at the birth.
7 tn Heb “and he put a journey of three days between himself and Jacob.”
8 tn The disjunctive clause (introduced by the vav with subject) is circumstantial/temporal; Laban removed the animals while Jacob was taking care of the rest.
