NUM 27:4 Parallel Verse View

Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations. Click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

(Occurrence 0) Why should our father’s name be taken away from among his clan members because he had no son?

(Some words not found in UHB: to/for=what taken_away name_of father,our from,midst clan,his that/for/because/then/when not to=him/it son give, to/for=ourselves property in_the=middle brothers father's,our )

At that time, only sons received land as an inheritance. The daughters use this question to suggest that they should receive the inheritance and continue the family clan. This can be written as a statement. Alternate translation: “You should not remove our father’s name from the clan members just because he did not have a son.”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

(Occurrence 0) Give us land among our father’s relatives

This means that they are asking to inherit land near where their father’s relatives are inheriting land. The meaning of this can be made clear. Alternate translation: “Give us land where our father’s relatives live”
