Footnotes
- 27 Heb “Now, swear to me by the Lord.” To swear an oath in the Lord’s name would make the Lord the witness and guarantor of the promise attached to the oath. If the person making the oath should go back on the promise, the Lord would judge him for breaking the contract.
- 28 Heb “with the house of my father.”
- 29 Heb “true sign,” that is, “an inviolable token or pledge.”
