Footnotes

  1. 3 Heb “it”; the referent (the southern border) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
  2. 4 In the Hebrew text the place name “Luz” has the directive ending, indicating that the border went from Bethel to Luz. Elsewhere Luz and Bethel appear to be names for the same site (cf. Judg 1:23), but here they appear to be distinct. Note that the translates “from Bethel (that is, Luz)” here, following the reading of the , εἰς Βαιθηλ Λουζα (eis Baithēl Louza, “from Bethel [Luz]”).
