[2:23]  ¹ tn Or “Havvoth Jair” (NIV, NRSV). Some translations do not translate the phrase (“havvoth” = “the towns of”), but treat it as part of the place name.

[5:1]  ² sn The phrase when he defiled his father’s bed refers to Reuben having sexual relations with his father Jacob’s concubine Bilhah. This incident is recorded in Gen 35:22.

[5:1]  ³ tn Heb “and not to be listed in the genealogical records as (having) the right of the firstborn.”

[7:2]  ³ tn Many English versions spell this name “Ibsam.”

[7:2]  ⁴ tn Many English versions retain a form of this name closer to the Hebrew, i.e., “Shemuel.”

[7:2]  ⁵ tn Heb “heads of the house of their fathers.”

[7:2]  ⁶ tn Heb “to Tola [there were] warriors by their generations, their number in the days of David [was] 22,600.”

[19:3]  ⁷ tc Heb “Is it not to explore and to overturn and to spy out the land (that) his servants have come to you?” The Hebrew term לַהֲפֹךְ (lahafakh, “to overturn”) seems misplaced in the sequence. Some emend the form to לַחְפֹּר (lakhpor, “to spy out”). The sequence of three infinitives may be a conflation of alternative readings.
