NET © Notes |
1 tn Heb “and he”; the referent (the angel, cf. v. 1) has been specified in the translation for clarity. 2 tn The occurrence of the infinitive absolute here for an expected imperfect 1st person common singular (or even imperative 2nd person masculine plural or preterite 3rd person masculine plural) is well-attested elsewhere. Most English translations render this as 1st person singular (“and I will clothe”), but cf. NAB “Take off…and clothe him.” |
