2 sn The genealogy traces the line from Adam to Noah and forms a bridge between the earlier accounts and the flood story. Its constant theme of the reign of death in the human race is broken once with the account of Enoch, but the genealogy ends with hope for the future through Noah. See further G. F. Hasel, “The Genealogies of Gen. 5 and 11 and their Alleged Babylonian Background,” AUSS 16 (1978): 361-74; idem, “Genesis 5 and 11,” Origins 7 (1980): 23-37.
3 tn Heb “everything which [has] the breath of the spirit of life in its nostrils from all which is in the dry land.”
4 tn Heb “And the days of Terah were.”
5 tn Heb “Terah”; the pronoun has been substituted for the proper name in the translation for stylistic reasons.
6 sn This explanatory note links the earlier name Ephrath with the later name Bethlehem.

8 tn The verb means “command,” but they would hardly be commanding him. It probably means they sent their father’s instructions to Joseph.
