[20:12]  1 tn The Hebrew term תֶּבֶל (tevel, “perversion”) derives from the verb “to mix; to confuse” (cf. KJV, ASV “they have wrought confusion”).

[38:18]  2 tn Heb “and he went to her.” This expression is a euphemism for sexual intercourse.

[38:19]  3 tn Heb “and she arose and left,” the first verb in the pair emphasizing that she wasted no time.

[38:26]  4 tn Traditionally “more righteous”; cf. NCV, NRSV, NLT “more in the right.”

[38:26]  5 tn Heb “and he did not add again to know her.” Here “know” is a euphemism for sexual intercourse.

[22:11]  6 tn Heb “a man.”

[22:11]  7 tn The verb is the same one used in verse 10b and suggests forcible sexual violation of the woman.
