[4:25]  ¹ tn Heb “knew,” a frequent euphemism for sexual relations.

[4:25]  ² sn The name Seth probably means something like “placed”; “appointed”; “set”; “granted,” assuming it is actually related to the verb that is used in the sentiment. At any rate, the name שֵׁת (shet) and the verb שָׁת (shat, “to place, to appoint, to set, to grant”) form a wordplay (paronomasia).

[4:25]  ³ tn Heb “offspring.”

[5:4]  ⁴ tn Heb “The days of Adam.”

[5:4]  ⁵ tn Heb “he fathered.”

[5:4]  ⁶ tn The word “other” is not in the Hebrew text, but is supplied for stylistic reasons.

[5:7]  ⁷ tn Heb “he fathered.”

[5:7]  ⁸ tn Here and in vv. 10, 13, 16, 19 the word “other” is not in the Hebrew text, but is supplied for stylistic reasons.
