Discovery BoxGenesis 7:14

Context31:39 Animals torn by wild beasts I never brought to you; I always absorbed the loss myself. 3 You always made me pay for every missing animal, 4 whether it was taken by day or at night.
Genesis 37:20
Context37:20 Come now, let’s kill him, throw him into one of the cisterns, and then say that a wild 5 animal ate him. Then we’ll see how his dreams turn out!” 6

Context43:16 When Joseph saw Benjamin with them, he said to the servant who was over his household, “Bring the men to the house. Slaughter an animal and prepare it, for the men will eat with me at noon.”
1 tn The verb “entered” is not in the Hebrew text, but is supplied in the translation for stylistic reasons.
2 tn Heb “every bird, every wing.”
3 tn The imperfect verbal form indicates that this was a customary or typical action.
4 tn Heb “from my hand you exacted it.” The imperfect verbal form again indicates that this was a customary or typical action. The words “for every missing animal” are supplied in the translation for clarity; the following clause in Hebrew, “stolen by day or stolen by night,” probably means “stolen by wild beasts” and refers to the same animals “torn by wild beasts” in the previous clause, although it may refer to animals stolen by people. The translation used here, “missing,” is ambiguous enough to cover either eventuality.
5 tn The Hebrew word can sometimes carry the nuance “evil,” but when used of an animal it refers to a dangerous wild animal.
6 tn Heb “what his dreams will be.”
