Genesis 28:2

28:2 Leave immediately ⁵  for Paddan Aram! Go to the house of Bethuel, your mother’s father, and find yourself a wife there, among the daughters of Laban, your mother’s brother.

[24:67]  ¹ tn Heb “her”; the referent has been specified here in the translation for clarity.

[24:67]  ² tn Heb “Rebekah”; here the proper name was replaced by the pronoun (“her”) in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[24:67]  ³ tn Heb “and he took Rebekah and she became his wife and he loved her.”

[24:67]  ⁴ tn Heb “after his mother.” This must refer to Sarah’s death.

[28:2]  ⁵ tn Heb “Arise! Go!” The first of the two imperatives is adverbial and stresses the immediacy of the departure.
