1 tn Heb “and he [i.e., Joseph] went to Shechem.” The referent (Joseph) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
2 tn Heb “and a man found him and look, he was wandering in the field.” By the use of וְהִנֵּה (vÿhinneh, “and look”), the narrator invites the reader to see the action through this unnamed man’s eyes.
3 tn Heb “And look, seven other cows were coming up after them from the Nile, bad of appearance and thin of flesh.”
4 tn Heb “the Nile.” This has been replaced by “the river” in the translation for stylistic reasons.
5 tn Heb “and look, from the Nile seven cows were coming up, fat of flesh and attractive of appearance, and they grazed in the reeds.”
