[6:25]  1 tn Or “Take a bull from your father’s herd, the second one, the one seven years old.” Apparently Gideon would need the bulls to pull down the altar.

[6:28]  2 tn Heb “look!” The narrator uses this word to invite his audience/readers to view the scene through the eyes of the men.

[6:30]  3 tn Heb “and let him die.” The jussive form with vav after the imperative is best translated as a purpose clause.
