Footnotes

  1. 33 Both with this verb “stolen” and in the next clauses with “torn in pieces,” the text uses the infinitive absolute construction with less than normal emphasis; as Gesenius says, in conditional clauses, an infinitive absolute stresses the importance of the condition on which some consequence depends ( §113.o).
  2. 34 The point is that the man should have taken better care of the animal.
