Footnotes
- 31 Heb “and the eyes of Leah were tender.” The disjunctive clause (introduced here by a conjunction and a noun) continues the parenthesis begun in v. 16. It is not clear what is meant by “tender” (or “delicate”) eyes. The expression may mean she had appealing eyes (cf. , , ), though some suggest that they were plain, not having the brightness normally expected. Either way, she did not measure up to her gorgeous sister.
- 32 Heb “and Rachel was beautiful of form and beautiful of appearance.”
