TSNTyndale Study Notes:

48:1-22 In blessing Ephraim and Manasseh, Jacob reached out by faith for the promise to be continued, having learned that God’s ways are not always the ways of men. Out of Jacob’s long life, the writer to the Hebrews selected the blessing of Joseph’s sons as his great act of faith (Heb 11:21). As Jacob acted in light of God’s will, the primary blessing was again given to the younger instead of the older son, but without scheming and its bitter results.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-quotations

וַ⁠יֹּ֤אמֶר יַעֲקֹב֙ אֶל־יוֹסֵ֔ף

and=he/it_said Yaakob to/towards Yōşēf/(Joseph)

Alternate translation: [Then Jacob recounted to Joseph the following:]

אֵ֥ל שַׁדַּ֛י

god_of almighty

Consider again how you translated God Almighty in the book of Genesis. See Gen 17:1; 28:3; 35:11; 43:14. Alternate translation: [Almighty God]

נִרְאָֽה־אֵלַ֥⁠י

he/it_appeared to=me

Consider again how you translated “appear” in the book of Genesis. See Gen 8:5; 12:7; 17:1; 18:1; 26:2, 24; 35:1, 9; 46:29; 48:3. It may be necessary to translate this term in different ways, depending on the context. Alternate translation: [came to me in a vision long ago]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / infostructure

בְּ⁠ל֖וּז בְּ⁠אֶ֣רֶץ כְּנָ֑עַן

in/on/at/with,Luz in=land Kinaˊan

For some languages it is more natural to put the larger place (Canaan) first before the smaller place (Luz) that is located inside it. It may also be more natural to put the time and place phrases first in this verse and say, “Long ago when I was at the town of Luz in the land/region of Canaan, God Almighty …” Do what is best in your language. Also see how you spelled the name Luz in Gen 28:19 and 35:6. Alternate translation: [when I was at the town of Luz in the land of Canaan] or [in the land of Canaan at the town of Luz]

וַ⁠יְבָ֖רֶךְ אֹתִֽ⁠י

and=he/it_blessed DOM=me

For some languages it is more natural to begin a new sentence here. Do what is best in your language. Alternate translation: [He pronounced a blessing over me there]
