1 tn Heb “and every good thing of his master was in his hand.” The disjunctive clause is circumstantial, explaining that he took all kinds of gifts to be used at his discretion.
2 tn Heb “and he arose and went.”
3 tn The words “the region of” are not in the Hebrew text, but are supplied in the translation for clarity.
sn Aram Naharaim means in Hebrew “Aram of the Two Rivers,” a region in northern Mesopotamia.
4 tn Heb “And she arose, Rebekah and her female servants, and they rode upon camels and went after.”
5 tn Heb “the servant”; the word “Abraham’s” has been supplied in the translation for stylistic reasons.
