Read in Logos

Footnotes

  1. 54 Heb “and concerning the repeating of the dream to Pharaoh two times.” The Niphal infinitive here is the object of the preposition; it is followed by the subjective genitive “of the dream.”
  2. 55 Heb “established.”
  3. 56 The clause combines a participle and an infinitive construct: God “is hurrying … to do it,” meaning he is going to do it soon.
