NET © Notes

tn On the force of the phrase גָּם כִּי (gam ki) here, see F. W. Bush, Ruth, Esther (WBC), 138-39.

tn Heb “with the servants who are mine you may stay close.” The imperfect has a permissive nuance here. The word “servants” is masculine plural.

tn Heb “until they have finished all the harvest which is mine”; NIV “until they finish harvesting all my grain.”
