NET © Notes |
1 tn Heb “you must not see,” but, if translated literally into English, the statement is misleading. 2 tn Heb “brother’s” (also later in this verse). In this context it is not limited to one’s siblings, however; cf. NAB “your kinsman’s.” 3 tn Heb “hide yourself.” 4 tn The Hebrew text uses the infinitive absolute for emphasis, which the translation indicates with the words “without fail.” |
