32:13Jacob28 stayed there that night. Then he sent29 as a gift30 to his brother Esau

Read in Logos

Footnotes

  1. 28 Heb “and he”; the referent (Jacob) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
  2. 29 Heb “and he took from that which was going into his hand,” meaning that he took some of what belonged to him.
  3. 30 The Hebrew noun translated gift can in some contexts refer to the tribute paid by a subject to his lord. Such a nuance is possible here, because Jacob refers to Esau as his lord and to himself as Esau’s servant (v. 4).
