Genesis 16:16

Context
16:16 (Now 1  Abram was 86 years old 2  when Hagar gave birth to Ishmael.) 3 

1 tn The disjunctive clause gives information that is parenthetical to the narrative.

2 tn Heb “the son of eighty-six years.”

3 tn The Hebrew text adds, “for Abram.” This has not been included in the translation for stylistic reasons; it is somewhat redundant given the three occurrences of Abram’s name in this and the previous verse.
