1 tn Heb “came.” 2 tn Heb “Look, you [are] dead.” The Hebrew construction uses the particle הִנֵּה (hinneh) with a second person pronominal particle הִנֵּה (hinneh) with by the participle. It is a highly rhetorical expression. 3 tn Heb “and she is owned by an owner.” The disjunctive clause is causal or explanatory in this case. |
