- Genesis 29:13 tn Heb “he”; the referent (Jacob) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
- Genesis 29:13 tn Heb “and he told to Laban all these things.” This might mean Jacob told Laban how he happened to be there, but Laban’s response (see v. 14) suggests “all these things” refers to what Jacob had previously told Rachel (see v. 12).
