[24:15]  1 tn Heb “Look, Rebekah was coming out!” Using the participle introduced with הִנֵּה (hinneh, “look”), the narrator dramatically transports the audience back into the event and invites them to see Rebekah through the servant’s eyes.

[24:15]  2 tn Heb “Look, Rebekah was coming out – [she] who was born to Bethuel, the son of Milcah, the wife of Nahor, the brother of Abraham – and her jug [was] on her shoulder.” The order of the clauses has been rearranged in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[24:24]  3 tn Heb “whom she bore to Nahor.” The referent (Milcah) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[24:47]  4 tn Heb “whom Milcah bore to him.” The referent (Nahor) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
