Discovery Box| (0.30) | (Lev 25:46) | 1 tn Heb “and your brothers, the sons of Israel, a man in his brother you shall not rule in him in violence.” |
| (0.30) | (Lev 23:12) | 2 tn Heb “a flawless lamb, a son of its year”; KJV “of the first year”; NLT “a year-old male lamb.” |
| (0.30) | (Lev 12:6) | 2 tn Heb “a lamb the son of his year”; KJV “a lamb of the first year” (NRSV “in its first year”); NAB “a yearling lamb.” |
| (0.30) | (Lev 9:3) | 2 tn Heb “and a calf and a lamb, sons of a year, flawless”; KJV, ASV, NRSV “without blemish”; NASB, NIV “without defect”; NLT “with no physical defects.” |
| (0.30) | (Lev 2:3) | 1 tn Heb “…is to Aaron and to his sons.” The preposition “to” (ל, lamed) indicates ownership. Cf. NAB, NASB, NIV and other English versions. |
| (0.30) | (Exo 13:13) | 4 tn Heb “and every firstborn of man among your sons.” The addition of “man” is clearly meant to distinguish firstborn humans from animals. |
| (0.30) | (Exo 13:8) | 1 tn The form is the Hiphil perfect with the vav (ו) consecutive, carrying the sequence forward: “and you will declare to your son.” |
| (0.30) | (Exo 12:5) | 3 tn The idiom says “a son of a year” (בֶּן־שָׁנָה, ben shanah), meaning a “yearling” or “one year old” (see GKC 418 §128.v). |
| (0.30) | (Exo 1:1) | 4 tn The expression בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל (bene yisraʾel, “sons of Israel”) in most places refers to the nation as a whole and can be translated “Israelites,” although traditionally it has been rendered “the children of Israel” or “the sons of Israel.” Here it refers primarily to the individual sons of the patriarch Israel, for they are named. But the expression is probably also intended to indicate that they are the Israelites (cf. Gen 29:1, “eastern people,” or “easterners,” lit., “sons of the east”). |
| (0.30) | (Gen 46:27) | 1 tn The LXX reads “nine sons,” probably counting the grandsons of Joseph born to Ephraim and Manasseh (cf. 1 Chr 7:14-20). |
| (0.30) | (Gen 43:12) | 2 tn Heb “take back in your hand.” The imperfect verbal form probably has an injunctive or obligatory force here, since Jacob is instructing his sons. |
| (0.30) | (Gen 37:35) | 2 tn Heb “and he said, ‘Indeed I will go down to my son mourning to Sheol.’” Sheol was viewed as the place where departed spirits went after death. |
| (0.30) | (Gen 34:17) | 3 tn Heb “daughter.” Jacob’s sons call Dinah their daughter, even though she was their sister (see v. 8). This has been translated as “sister” for clarity. |
| (0.30) | (Gen 34:5) | 1 tn The two disjunctive clauses in this verse (“Now Jacob heard…and his sons were”) are juxtaposed to indicate synchronic action. |
| (0.30) | (Gen 32:11) | 5 sn Heb “me, [the] mother upon [the] sons.” The first person pronoun “me” probably means here “me and mine,” as the following clause suggests. |
| (0.30) | (Gen 27:32) | 2 tn Heb “and he said, ‘I [am] your son, your firstborn.’” The order of the introductory clause and the direct discourse has been rearranged for stylistic reasons. |
| (0.30) | (Gen 27:25) | 2 tn Heb “Bring near to me and I will eat of the wild game, my son.” Following the imperative, the cohortative with the prefixed conjunction indicates purpose or result. |
| (0.30) | (Gen 27:21) | 2 tn Heb “Are you this one, Esau, my son, or not?” On the use of the interrogative particle here, see BDB 210 s.v. הֲ. |
| (0.30) | (Gen 25:13) | 1 tn The meaning of this line is not easily understood. The sons of Ishmael are listed here “by their names” and “according to their descendants.” |
| (0.30) | (Gen 25:6) | 2 tn Heb “And he sent them away from upon Isaac his son, while he was still living, eastward to the land of the east.” |
