NET © Notes |
1 tn Heb “and the firstborn said.” 2 tn Or perhaps “on earth,” in which case the statement would be hyperbolic; presumably there had been some men living in the town of Zoar to which Lot and his daughters had initially fled. 3 tn Heb “to enter upon us.” This is a euphemism for sexual relations. |
