[29:33]  1 tn Heb “hated.” See the note on the word “unloved” in v. 31.

[29:33]  2 sn The name Simeon (שִׁמְעוֹן, shimon) is derived from the verbal root שָׁמַע (shama’) and means “hearing.” The name is appropriate since it is reminder that the Lord “heard” about Leah’s unloved condition and responded with pity.

[19:1]  3 tn Heb “and the second lot came out for Simeon, for the tribe of the sons of Simeon by their clans.”
