[5:21]  ¹ tn The Hebrew verb used here (חָמַד, khamad) is different from the one translated “crave” (אָוַה, ’avah) in the next line. The former has sexual overtones (“lust” or the like; cf. Song of Sol 2:3) whereas the latter has more the idea of a desire or craving for material things.

[5:21]  ² tn Heb “your neighbor’s.” See note on the term “fellow man” in v. 19.

[5:21]  ³ tn Heb “your neighbor’s.” The pronoun is used in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[5:21]  ⁴ tn Heb “or anything that is your neighbor’s.”

[12:20]  ⁵ tn Heb “for my soul desires to eat meat.”
