NETBible

Isaac reopened¹ the wells that had been dug² back in the days of his father Abraham, for the Philistines had stopped them up³ after Abraham died. Isaac⁴ gave these wells⁵ the same names his father had given them.⁶

NET Notes

¹tn Heb “he returned and dug,” meaning “he dug again” or “he reopened.”

²tn Heb “that they dug.” Since the subject is indefinite, the verb is translated as passive.

³tn Heb “and the Philistines had stopped them up.” This clause explains why Isaac had to reopen them.

⁴tn Heb “and he”; the referent (Isaac) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

⁵tn Heb “them”; the referent (the wells) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

⁶tn Heb “called names to them according to the names that his father called them.”
