Genesis 38:25

Context
38:25 While they were bringing her out, she sent word 1  to her father-in-law: “I am pregnant by the man to whom these belong.” 2  Then she said, “Identify 3  the one to whom the seal, cord, and staff belong.”

1 tn Heb “she was being brought out and she sent.” The juxtaposition of two clauses, both of which place the subject before the predicate, indicates synchronic action.

2 tn Heb “who these to him.”

3 tn Or “ recognize; note.” This same Hebrew verb (נָכַר, nakhar) is used at the beginning of v. 26, where it is translated “recognized.”
