Genesis 39:10

Context
39:10 Even though she continued to speak 1  to Joseph day after day, he did not respond 2  to her invitation to have sex with her. 3 

1 tn The verse begins with the temporal indicator, followed by the infinitive construct with the preposition כְּ (kÿ). This clause could therefore be taken as temporal.

2 tn Heb “listen to.”

3 tn Heb “to lie beside her to be with her.” Here the expression “to lie beside” is a euphemism for sexual intercourse.
