1 tn Heb “days.”

2 tn Heb “Abraham.” The proper name has been replaced in the translation by the pronoun (“he”) for stylistic reasons.

3 tn Heb “great.” In this context the statement refers primarily to Abraham’s material wealth, although reputation and influence are not excluded.

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