NET Notes

¹tn Heb “he”; the referent (Gideon) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

²tn Note the switch to אֲדֹנָי (’adonay, “Lord”). Gideon seems aware that he is speaking to someone other than, and superior to, the messenger, whom he addressed as אֲדֹנִי (’adoniy, “my lord”) in v. 13.

³tn Heb “with what.”

⁴tn Heb “in my father’s house.”
