1 tn Heb “a hundredfold.”

2 tn This final clause explains why Isaac had such a bountiful harvest.

3 tn This rare verb means “to make a fool of” someone. It involves deceiving someone so that their public reputation suffers (see Exod 8:25).

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

5 tn Heb “until his drawing near unto his brother.” The construction uses the preposition with the infinitive construct to express a temporal clause.
