Genesis 27:16

Context
27:16 She put the skins of the young goats 1  on his hands 2  and the smooth part of his neck.

Genesis 33:4

Context
33:4 But Esau ran to meet him, embraced him, hugged his neck, and kissed him. Then they both wept.

1 tn In the Hebrew text the object (“the skins of the young goats”) precedes the verb. The disjunctive clause draws attention to this key element in the subterfuge.

2 tn The word “hands” probably includes the forearms here. How the skins were attached is not specified in the Hebrew text; cf. NLT “she made him a pair of gloves.”
