Genesis 30:15

Context
30:15 But Leah replied, 1  “Wasn’t it enough that you’ve taken away my husband? Would you take away my son’s mandrakes too?” “All right,” 2  Rachel said, “he may sleep 3  with you tonight in exchange for your son’s mandrakes.”

Genesis 47:18

Context

47:18 When that year was over, they came to him the next year and said to him, “We cannot hide from our 4  lord that the money is used up and the livestock and the animals belong to our lord. Nothing remains before our lord except our bodies and our land.

1 tn Heb “and she said to her”; the referent of the pronoun “she” (Leah) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

2 tn Heb “therefore.”

3 tn Heb “lie down.” The expression “lie down with” in this context (here and in the following verse) refers to sexual intercourse. The imperfect verbal form has a permissive nuance here.

4 tn Heb “my.” The expression “my lord” occurs twice more in this verse.
