[6:16]  1 tc The MT understands the root here to be יָרֵא (yare’, “to fear”) rather than רָאָה (raah, “to see”).

[6:16]  2 tn Heb “they greatly fell [i.e., were cast down] in their own eyes.” Some scholars suggest emending the reading of the MT, וַיִּפְּלוּ (vayyipÿlu) to וַיִּפָּלֵא (vayyippale’, “it was very extraordinary in their eyes”).

[9:32]  3 tn Heb “the covenant and loyal love.” The expression is a hendiadys. The second noun retains its full nominal sense, while the first functions adjectivally: “the covenant and loyalty” = covenant fidelity.

[9:32]  4 tn Heb “do not let it seem small in your sight.”

[10:37]  5 tn Heb “a tithe of our land.”

[10:37]  6 tn Heb “of our work.”

[10:38]  7 tn Heb “And the priest the son of Aaron.”

[13:18]  9 tn Heb “your fathers.”
