TSNTyndale Study Notes:

33:1-17 Jacob’s long-anticipated meeting with his brother Esau turned out far better than he had feared. Esau’s changed heart is an example of how “God fights” (See 32:28). Earlier, he had cared little about the birthright (25:32-34); now he cared little for old grudges. Jacob recognized that God had intervened.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

וְ⁠ה֖וּא עָבַ֣ר לִ⁠פְנֵי⁠הֶ֑ם

and=he went_on to/for,ahead_of,them

Alternate translation: “Then Jacob himself walked ahead of them all toward his brother,” or “Then he started going toward his brother ahead of them all,”

Note 1 topic: translate-symaction

וַ⁠יִּשְׁתַּ֤חוּ אַ֨רְצָ⁠ה֙ שֶׁ֣בַע פְּעָמִ֔ים עַד גִּשְׁתּ֖⁠וֹ עַד אָחִֽי⁠ו

and,bowed_down towards=land seven times until came_near,he until his/its=woman

See how you translated “bow down” in Gen 27:29. Alternate translation: “and he bowed with his face to the ground seven times to show respect as he went closer to him” or “As he approached Esau, he prostrated himself with his face to the ground seven times to show respect.”
