FOOTNOTES: F338: Moses called the Lord's name   Literally, "He called on the name of the Lord." This might mean Moses worshiped the Lord, or it might mean the Lord spoke his name to Moses. F339: YAHWEH   This name, usually translated "Lord," is like the Hebrew word meaning, "He is" or "He makes things exist." F340: forgives   Or, "spares." F341: The Lord … people do   Or, "The Lord credits the guilt of the fathers to their children and grandchildren, to the third and fourth generation."
