Footnotes
- 62 On the close relationship between Ishmaelites (v. 25) and Midianites, see Judg 8:24.
- 63 Heb “they drew and they lifted up.” The referent (Joseph’s brothers) has been specified in the translation for clarity; otherwise the reader might assume the Midianites had pulled Joseph from the cistern (but cf. ).
- 64 Heb “Joseph” (both here and in the following clause); the proper name has been replaced both times by the pronoun “him” in the translation for stylistic reasons.
- 65 Heb “they”; the referent (the Ishmaelites) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
