OET (OET-RV) Then one day Yahweh appeared again to Abraham at the oak trees on Mamre’s land, while Abraham was sitting at the entrance of his tent during the hottest part of the day.
וַיֵּרָ֤א אֵלָיו֙ יְהוָ֔ה
and,appeared to=him/it YHWH
See how you translated appeared in Gen 12:7 and 17:1. Also, consider whether it is better to refer to Abraham here with a pronoun or with his name in your language. Alternate translation: “Then one day Yahweh came again to him” or “One day Yahweh visited Abraham again”
בְּאֵלֹנֵ֖י מַמְרֵ֑א
in/on/at/with,oaks Mamre
See how you translated this phrase in Gen 13:18, 14:13, and a similar phrase in Gen 12:6.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / pronouns
וְה֛וּא יֹשֵׁ֥ב
and=he was_sitting
Alternate translation: “as Abraham was sitting”
פֶּֽתַח הָאֹ֖הֶל
entrance the,tent
The entrance to the tent was an opening that could be closed by a large piece of cloth or animal skin. It did not have a solid wood door like a house has. See how you translated tent in Gen 4:20. Alternate translation: “at the doorway of his tent” or “by the front of his tent”
כְּחֹ֥ם הַיּֽוֹם
in,heat the=day
Alternate translation: “during the hot time of the day.”
18:1-15 The Lord’s visit to Abraham set the time for Isaac’s birth. The three visitors were probably the Lord and two angels (see study note on 16:7). Abraham’s peaceful and generous reception of the visitors contrasts sharply with the chaos and corruption of Sodom (ch 19). Eating together was important in making or confirming covenants; when God was ready to fulfill the covenant promise, he came in person to share a meal with Abraham. Fellowship with God has always been signified by a communal meal (see Exod 24:9-11; Matt 26:17-30 // Luke 22:7-38; Acts 2:42; 1 Cor 11:20-34).

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Greek words that they’re translated from.
