[2:10]  1 tn Here and throughout the line is literally “[under] the standard of the camp of Reuben…according to their divisions.”

[2:14]  2 tn The Hebrew text simply has “and the tribe of Gad.”

[2:14]  3 tc The Leningrad codex, upon which BHS is based, has “Reuel” here. In reading “Deuel” the translation presented above follows many medieval Hebrew manuscripts, Smr, and the Latin Vulgate. Cf. Num 1:14.

[26:5]  4 tc The Hebrew text has no preposition here, but one has been supplied in the translation for clarity. Cf. vv. 23, 30, 31, 32.

[26:7]  5 sn The Reubenites had decreased from 46,500 to 43,730.

[26:16]  6 tc The MT of Gen 46:16 reads this as “Ezbon.”

[26:16]  7 tc The Greek version and Smr have “Ad[d]i,” probably by confusion of letters.

[26:17]  8 tc Gen 46:16 and the LXX here read “Arodi.”

[26:18]  9 sn The Gadites decreased from 45,650 to 40,500.

[29:32]  10 tn Or “Leah conceived” (also in vv. 33, 34, 35).

[29:32]  11 sn The name Reuben (רְאוּבֵן, rÿuven) means “look, a son.”

[29:32]  12 tn Heb “looked on my affliction.”

[30:10]  13 tn Heb “and Zilpah, the servant of Leah, bore for Jacob a son.”

[30:11]  14 tc The statement in the Kethib (consonantal text) appears to mean literally “with good fortune,” if one takes the initial בְּ (bet) as a preposition indicating accompaniment. The Qere (marginal reading) means “good fortune has arrived.”

[30:11]  15 sn The name Gad (גָּד, gad) means “good fortune.” The name reflects Leah’s feeling that good fortune has come her way, as expressed in her statement recorded earlier in the verse.
