Genesis 42
from The Readings
Genesis 42 read aloud, in a fresh direct translation from the Hebrew — plain modern English, nothing added. Translator's notes: • Genesis 42:9 — עֶרְוַת הָאָרֶץ (ervat ha-aretz): chose "the land's unguarded places". Alternatives: "the nakedness of the land" (literal). Why: the phrase is an idiom for the land's exposed, undefended points, which is what the accusation of spying means.
