Discovery Box| (0.35) | (Jos 2:3) | 4 tn The words “the ones who came to your house” (Heb “who came to your house”) may be a euphemistic scribal addition designed to blur the sexual connotation of the preceding words. |
| (0.35) | (Deu 28:8) | 1 tn Heb “the Lord your God.” Because English would not typically reintroduce the proper name following a relative pronoun (“he will bless…the Lord your God is giving”), the pronoun (“he”) has been employed here in the translation. |
| (0.35) | (Deu 13:3) | 3 tn Heb “all your heart and soul” (so NRSV, CEV, NLT); or “heart and being” (NCV “your whole being”). See note on the word “being” in Deut 6:5. |
| (0.35) | (Deu 13:6) | 1 tn Heb “your brother, the son of your mother.” In a polygamous society it was not rare to have half brothers and sisters by way of a common father and different mothers. |
| (0.35) | (Deu 12:15) | 1 tn Heb “only in all the desire of your soul you may sacrifice and eat flesh according to the blessing of the Lord your God which he has given to you.” |
| (0.35) | (Deu 9:26) | 3 tn Heb “your inheritance”; NLT “your special (very own NRSV) possession.” Israel is compared to landed property that one would inherit from his ancestors and pass on to his descendants. |
| (0.35) | (Lev 26:30) | 2 tn The translation reflects the Hebrew wordplay “your corpses…the corpses of your idols.” Since idols, being lifeless, do not really have “corpses,” the translation uses “dead bodies” for people and “lifeless bodies” for the idols. |
| (0.35) | (Lev 19:27) | 1 tc Heb “and you [singular] shall not ruin the corner of your [singular] beard.” Smr, LXX, Syriac, and Tg. Ps.-J. have the plural pronouns (i.e., “you” and “your” plural) rather than the singular of the MT. |
| (0.35) | (Exo 8:4) | 2 sn The word order of the Hebrew text is important because it shows how the plague was pointedly directed at Pharaoh: “and against you, and against your people, and against all your servants frogs will go up.” |
| (0.35) | (Gen 44:9) | 1 tn Heb “The one with whom it is found from your servants.” Here “your servants” (a deferential way of referring to the brothers themselves) has been translated by the pronoun “us” to avoid confusion with Joseph’s servants. |
| (0.35) | (Gen 43:23) | 2 sn Your God and the God of your father…This is the first clear reference in the story to the theme of divine providence—that God works through the human actions to do his will. |
| (0.35) | (Gen 9:5) | 1 tn Again the text uses apposition to clarify what kind of blood is being discussed: “your blood, [that is] for your life.” See C. L. Dewar, “The Biblical Use of the Term ‘Blood,’” JTS 4 (1953): 204-8. |
| (0.35) | (Rev 19:18) | 2 tn The idea of eating “your fill” is evident in the context with the use of χορτάζω (chortazō) in v. 21. |
| (0.35) | (Rev 3:4) | 2 tn Or “soiled” (so NAB, NRSV, NIV); NCV “have kept their clothes unstained”; CEV “have not dirtied your clothes with sin.” |
| (0.35) | (Phi 2:20) | 1 tn Grk “For I have no one who is like-minded who will genuinely be concerned for your welfare.” |
| (0.35) | (Rom 13:5) | 2 tn Grk “because of (the) conscience,” but the English possessive “your” helps to show whose conscience the context implies. |
| (0.35) | (Act 26:17) | 2 tn That is, from the Jewish people. Grk “the people”; the words “your own” have been supplied to clarify the meaning. |
| (0.35) | (Act 24:4) | 4 tn BDAG 371 s.v. ἐπιείκεια has “τῇ σῇ ἐ. with your (customary) indulgence Ac 24:4.” |
