Genesis 33:19

Context
33:19 Then he purchased the portion of the field where he had pitched his tent; he bought it 1  from the sons of Hamor, Shechem’s father, for a hundred pieces of money. 2 

1 tn The words “he bought it” are supplied in the translation for stylistic reasons. In the Hebrew text v. 19 is one long sentence.

2 tn The Hebrew word קְשִׂיטָה (qÿsitah) is generally understood to refer to a unit of money, but the value is unknown. (However, cf. REB, which renders the term as “sheep”).
