Genesis 46:22

46:22 These were the sons of Rachel who were born to Jacob, fourteen in all.

[30:12]  ¹ tn Heb “and Zilpah, the servant of Leah, bore a second son for Jacob.”

[30:19]  ² tn Heb “and she bore a sixth son for Jacob,” i.e., this was the sixth son that Leah had given Jacob.

[25:33]  ³ tn Heb “Swear to me today.”

[25:33]  ⁴ tn Heb “and he”; the referent (Esau) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[25:33]  ⁵ sn And sold his birthright. There is evidence from Hurrian culture that rights of inheritance were occasionally sold or transferred. Here Esau is portrayed as a profane person who would at the moment rather have a meal than the right to inherit. He will soon forget this trade and seek his father’s blessing in spite of it.

[29:15]  ⁴ tn The verb is the perfect with the vav (ו) consecutive; the nuance in the question is deliberative.

[29:15]  ⁵ tn Heb “my brother.” The term “brother” is used in a loose sense; actually Jacob was Laban’s nephew.

[30:7]  ⁵ tn Heb “and she became pregnant again and Bilhah, the servant of Rachel, bore a second son for Jacob.”

[30:17]  ⁶ tn Heb “listened to.”

[30:17]  ⁷ tn Or “she conceived” (also in v. 19).

[30:17]  ⁸ tn Heb “and she bore for Jacob a fifth son,” i.e., this was the fifth son that Leah had given Jacob.

[30:42]  ⁷ tn Heb “he did not put [them] in.” The referent of the [understood] direct object, “them,” has been specified as “the branches” in the translation for clarity.

[30:42]  ⁸ tn Heb “were for Laban.”

[31:51]  ⁸ tn Heb “and Laban said to Jacob, ‘Behold this heap and behold the pillar which I have set between men and you.’” The order of the introductory clause and the direct discourse has been rearranged in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[34:1]  ⁹ tn Heb “went out to see.” The verb “to see,” followed by the preposition בְּ (bÿ), here has the idea of “look over.” The young girl wanted to meet these women and see what they were like.

[34:1]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “daughters.”
