Footnotes

  1. 28 The Hebrew verbal forms could be imperatives (“Disguise yourself and enter”), but this would make no sense in light of the immediately following context. The forms are better interpreted as infinitives absolute functioning as cohortatives (see §35.5.2a). Some prefer to emend the forms to imperfects.
