[18:31]  1 tn The verb is the perfect tense with vav (ו) consecutive; it functions as the equivalent of the imperfect of permission.

[20:5]  2 tn Heb “and why.”

[20:5]  3 tn Here also the infinitive construct (Hiphil) forms the subordinate clause of the preceding interrogative clause.

[23:27]  3 tn Heb “be pleasing in the eyes of God.”

[23:27]  4 sn Balak is stubborn, as indeed Balaam is persistent. But Balak still thinks that if another location were used it just might work. Balaam had actually told Balak in the prophecy that other attempts would fail. But Balak refuses to give up so easily. So he insists they perform the ritual and try again. This time, however, Balaam will change his approach, and this will result in a dramatic outpouring of power on him.
