TSNTyndale Study Notes:

17:1-27 God now gave the family signs that the promises would be fulfilled. He changed Abram’s name to Abraham (17:1-8), instituted the rite of circumcision as the sign of the covenant (17:9-14, 23-27), and changed Sarai’s name to Sarah (17:15-22).


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-time-background

וְ⁠אַ֨בְרָהָ֔ם

and,Abraham

The information in verses 24 and 25 is background information. Many languages have a specific conjunction or transitional phrase that is used to introduce this kind of information. Do what is best in your language. Alternate translation: “Now Abraham”

בֶּן תִּשְׁעִ֥ים וָ⁠תֵ֖שַׁע שָׁנָ֑ה

son_of ninety and,nine year

See how you translated “a son of … years” in verse 1. Alternate translation: “was ninety-nine years old”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

בְּ⁠הִמֹּל֖⁠וֹ בְּשַׂ֥ר עָרְלָתֽ⁠וֹ

in/on/at/with,circumcised,he flesh foreskin,his

We do not know who circumcised Abraham. Some Jewish scholars think it was Shem and some others think Abraham did it himself. However, the Hebrew text does not say who did it, so in your translation it is best to also not specify who did it. Consider what is the best way to translate this passive clause in your language. Alternate translation: “when his foreskin was cut off,”
