[29:19] 1 tn Heb “Better my giving her to you than my giving her to another man.”
[8:13] 2 tn Heb In the six hundred and first year.” Since this refers to the six hundred and first year of Noah’s life, the word “Noah’s” has been supplied in the translation for clarity.
[8:13] 3 tn Heb “and saw and look.” As in v. 11, the deictic particle הִנֵּה (hinneh) invites readers to enter into the story, as it were, and look at the dry ground with their own eyes.
[11:6] 3 tn Heb “and one lip to all of them.”
[11:6] 4 tn Heb “and now.” The foundational clause beginning with הֵן (hen) expresses the condition, and the second clause the result. It could be rendered “If this…then now.”
[11:6] 5 tn Heb “all that they purpose to do will not be withheld from them.”
