Footnotes

  1. 24 Heb “heel.” The has suffered from misdivision at this point. The initial mem on the first word in the next verse should probably be taken as a plural ending on the word “heel.” In Hebrew the name Gad (גָּד, gad) sounds like the words translated “raided” (יְגוּדֶנּוּ, yégudennu) and “marauding bands” (גְּדוּד, gédud).
