[10:12]  ¹ tc The translation follows the LXX which reads “Midian”; the Hebrew text has “Maon.”

[10:12]  ² tn The words “Did I not deliver you” are interpretive. The Hebrew text simply reads, “Is it not from Egypt…when they oppressed you?” Perhaps the incomplete sentence reflects the Lord’s frustration.

[10:12]  ³ tn Heb “hand.”

[2:1]  ⁴ sn See Exod 14:19; 23:20.

[2:1]  ⁵ tn Heb “the land that I had sworn to your fathers.”

[2:1]  ⁶ tn Or “covenant” (also in the following verse).

[9:17]  ⁷ tc Heb “threw his life out in front,” that is, “exposed himself to danger.” The MT form מִנֶּגֶד (minneged, “from before”) should probably be read as מִנֶּגְדּוֹ (minnegdo, “from before him”); haplography of vav has likely occurred here in the MT.

[9:17]  ⁸ tn Heb “hand.”

[10:13]  ¹⁰ tn Or “served”; or “followed.”

[6:8]  ¹³ tn Heb “the Lord”; the proper name has been replaced by the pronoun (“he”) in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[6:8]  ¹⁴ tn Heb “a man, a prophet.” Hebrew idiom sometimes puts a generic term before a more specific designation.

[6:8]  ¹⁵ tc Some ancient witnesses read “from the land of Egypt.” מֵאֶרֶץ (me’erets, “from the land [of]”) could have been accidentally omitted by homoioarcton (note the following מִמִּצְרַיִם [mimmitsrayim, “from Egypt”]).

[6:8]  ¹⁶ tn Heb “of the house of slavery.”

[6:9]  ¹⁶ tn Heb “hand” (also a second time later in this verse).

[8:19]  ¹⁹ tn The words “I swear” are supplied in the translation for clarification.

[12:2]  ²² tn Heb A man of great strife I was and my people and the Ammonites.”

[12:2]  ²³ tn Heb “hand.”

[7:7]  ²⁵ tn Heb “you.” The Hebrew pronoun is masculine plural, probably referring to the entire army.

[7:7]  ²⁶ tn The Hebrew pronoun here is singular.

[7:7]  ²⁷ tn Heb “All the people should go, each to his place.”
