NET Notes

¹tn Or “one of them”; Heb “he.” Several ancient versions (LXX, Vulgate, Syriac) read the plural “they.” See also the note on “your” in v. 19.

²tn Heb “escape.”

³tn The Hebrew verb translated “look” signifies an intense gaze, not a passing glance. This same verb is used later in v. 26 to describe Lot’s wife’s self-destructive look back at the city.

⁴tn Or “in the plain”; Heb “in the circle,” referring to the “circle” or oval area of the Jordan Valley.
