[5:26]  ¹ tn The word “other” is not in the Hebrew text, but is supplied for stylistic reasons.

[5:30]  ¹ tn The word “other” is not in the Hebrew text, but is supplied for stylistic reasons.

[17:17]  ¹ sn Laughed. The Hebrew verb used here provides the basis for the naming of Isaac: “And he laughed” is וַיִּצְחָק (vayyitskhaq); the name “Isaac” is יִצְחָק (yitskhaq), “he laughs.” Abraham’s (and Sarah’s, see 18:12) laughter signals disbelief, but when the boy is born, the laughter signals surprise and joy.
