[23:10]  ¹ tn Heb “and you harvest its harvest.”

[23:10]  ² tn Heb “the sheaf of the first of your harvest.”

[25:2]  ³ tn Heb “the land shall rest a Sabbath.”

[35:10]  ⁴ tn The word “River” is not in the Hebrew text, but has been supplied in the translation for clarity.

[7:2]  ⁵ tn Heb “the Lord your God.” The pronoun has been used in the translation for stylistic reasons to avoid redundancy.

[7:2]  ⁶ tn In the Hebrew text the infinitive absolute before the finite verb emphasizes the statement. The imperfect has an obligatory nuance here. Cf. ASV “shalt (must NRSV) utterly destroy them”; CEV “must destroy them without mercy.”

[7:2]  ⁷ tn Heb “covenant” (so NASB, NRSV); TEV “alliance.”

[12:1]  ⁸ tn Heb “fathers.”

[12:1]  ⁹ tn Heb “you must be careful to obey in the land the Lord, the God of your fathers, has given you to possess all the days which you live in the land.” This adverbial statement modifies “to obey,” not “to possess,” so the order in the translation has been rearranged to make this clear.

[12:8]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “a man.”

[19:1]  ¹¹ tn Heb “the Lord your God.” The pronoun has been used in the translation for stylistic reasons to avoid redundancy.
