¹ tn Heb “the beast of the field.”

² tn The covenant duties begin with this command to “keep well” what is being commanded. The Hebrew expression is “keep for you”; the preposition and the suffix form the ethical dative, adding strength to the imperative.

³ tn Again, this is the futur instans use of the participle.

⁴ tn The verb קָרָא (qara’) plus the preposition “to” – “to call to” someone means “to summon” that person.

⁵ tn Here there is a slight change: “in whose heart Yahweh had put skill.”

⁶ tn Or “whose heart was willing.”

⁷ sn The verb means more than “approach” or “draw near”; קָרַב (qarav) is the word used for drawing near the altar as in bringing an offering. Here they offer themselves, their talents and their time.
