  2. Deuteronomy 7:19 tn Heb “testings” (so NAB), a reference to the plagues. See note at 4:34.
  3. Deuteronomy 7:19 tn Heb “the strong hand and outstretched arm.” See 4:34.
  4. Deuteronomy 7:19 tn Heb “the Lord your God.” The pronoun has been used in the translation for stylistic reasons to avoid redundancy.
