NET © Notes |
1 tn Heb “Pharaoh sent.” The phrase “representatives to investigate” is implied in the context. 2 tn Heb “and the heart of Pharaoh was hardened.” This phrase translates the Hebrew word כָּבֵד (kaved; see S. R. Driver, Exodus, 53). In context this represents the continuation of a prior condition. |
