[18:11]  ¹ tn Heb “days.”

[18:11]  ² tn Heb “it had ceased to be for Sarah [after] a way like women.”

[18:12]  ³ tn Heb “saying.”

[18:12]  ⁴ tn It has been suggested that this word should be translated “conception,” not “pleasure.” See A. A. McIntosh, “A Third Root ‘adah in Biblical Hebrew,” VT 24 (1974): 454-73.
