TSNTyndale Study Notes:

38:1-30 The story of Judah and Tamar is a carefully placed interlude; it reports what was happening in the family of Judah, who would later rise to prominence, and it shows the beginnings of assimilation with the people of the land to help explain why God sent the family to Egypt (chs 39–47). The Egyptians were strict separatists (43:32); the Israelites would retain their unique identity better in Egypt than in Canaan.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

וַ⁠יִּשְׁלַ֨ח יְהוּדָ֜ה אֶת־גְּדִ֣י הָֽ⁠עִזִּ֗ים בְּ⁠יַד֙ רֵעֵ֣⁠הוּ הָֽ⁠עֲדֻלָּמִ֔י

See how you translated “his friend … the Adullamite” in verse 12 and kid goat in verse 17. Alternate translation: “After that, Judah sent his friend Hirah the Adullamite with a young goat”

לָ⁠קַ֥חַת הָ⁠עֵרָב֖וֹן מִ⁠יַּ֣ד הָ⁠אִשָּׁ֑ה

to=take/accept/receive the,pledge from,hand the=woman

Alternate translation: “to retrieve his things from the woman whom he had given them to.” or “to exchange it for the things he had left with the woman” or “to get back from the woman the things he had left with her.”

וְ⁠לֹ֖א מְצָאָֽ⁠הּ

and=not find,her

Alternate translation: “but Hirah could not find her.”
