Footnotes

  1. Genesis 13:8 tn Heb “men, brothers [are] we.” Here “brothers” describes the closeness of the relationship, but could be misunderstood if taken literally, since Abram was Lot’s uncle.
  2. Genesis 13:9 tn The words “you go” have been supplied in the translation for stylistic reasons both times in this verse.
