[20:15]  1 tn Heb “In the [place that is] good in your eyes live!”

[34:10]  2 tn The imperfect verbal form has a permissive nuance here.

[34:10]  3 tn Heb “before you.”

[34:10]  4 tn The verb seems to carry the basic meaning “travel about freely,” although the substantival participial form refers to a trader (see E. A. Speiser, “The Verb sh£r in Genesis and Early Hebrew Movements,” BASOR 164 [1961]: 23-28); cf. NIV, NRSV “trade in it.”
