1 tn Heb “And the gate was to be shut in the darkness and the men went out.”
2 tn Heb “All the people who went out from Egypt, the males, all the men of war, died in the desert in the way when they went out from Egypt.”
3 tn Heb “Why have you given me as an inheritance one lot and one portion, though I am a great people until [the time] which, until now the Lord has blessed me?” The construction עַד אֲשֶׁר־עַד־כֹּה (’ad-’asher-’ad-koh, “until [the time] which, until now”) is extremely awkward. An emendation of the first עַד (’ad) to עַל (’al) yields a more likely reading: “for until now” (see HALOT 2:787).
4 tn Heb “the territory of the sons of Dan went out from them.”
5 tn Heb “Leshem.” The pronoun (“it”) has replaced the name “Leshem” in the translation for stylistic reasons.
6 tn Heb “according to the name of their father.”
7 tn Heb “for without knowledge he killed his neighbor, and he was not hating him prior to that.”
