Expanded Bible

²⁹ But he pulled his hand back in, so the other baby was born first. The nurse said, “·So you are able to break out first [or What a breach you have made],” and they named him Perez [^Csounds like “break out” in Hebrew]. ³⁰ After this, the baby with the red string on his hand was born, and they named him Zerah [^Cshining/brightness, perhaps referring to the red string].
