[1:38]  ¹ tn Heb “the one who stands before you”; NAB “your aide”; TEV “your helper.”

[1:38]  ² tn Heb “it”; the referent (the land) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[3:28]  ³ tn Heb “command”; KJV, NASB, NRSV “charge Joshua.”

[12:23]  ⁵ sn The blood is life itself. This is a figure of speech (metonymy) in which the cause or means (the blood) stands for the result or effect (life). That is, life depends upon the existence and circulation of blood, a truth known empirically but not scientifically tested and proved until the 17th century a.d. (cf. Lev 17:11).

[22:25]  ⁷ tn Heb “found,” also in vv. 27, 28.

[22:25]  ⁸ tn Heb “lay with” here refers to a forced sexual relationship, as the accompanying verb “seized” (חָזַק, khazaq) makes clear.

[22:25]  ⁹ tn Heb “the man who lay with her, only him.”

[25:11]  ⁹ tn Heb “a man and his brother.”

[25:11]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “shameful parts.” Besides the inherent indelicacy of what she has done, the woman has also threatened the progenitive capacity of the injured man. The level of specificity given this term in modern translations varies: “private parts” (NAB, NIV, CEV); “genitals” (NASB, NRSV, TEV); “sex organs” (NCV); “testicles” (NLT).
