NET © Notes |
1 tn Heb “and Jacob did so.” The words “as Laban said” are supplied in the translation for stylistic reasons. 2 tn Heb “and he”; the referent (Jacob) has been specified in the translation for clarity. 3 tn Heb “the seven of this one.” The referent of “this one” has been specified in the translation as Leah to avoid confusion with Rachel, mentioned later in the verse. 4 tn Heb “and he gave to him Rachel his daughter for him for a wife.” The referent of the pronoun “he” (Laban) has been specified in the translation for clarity. |
