[5:21]  ¹ tn Heb “their”; the referent (the Hagrites) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[6:49]  ² tn Heb “for all the work of the holy of holies.”

[6:49]  ³ tn Heb “making atonement for Israel according to all which Moses the servant of God commanded.”

[7:2]  ⁴ tn Many English versions spell this name “Ibsam.”

[7:2]  ⁵ tn Many English versions retain a form of this name closer to the Hebrew, i.e., “Shemuel.”

[7:2]  ⁶ tn Heb “heads of the house of their fathers.”

[7:2]  ⁷ tn Heb “to Tola [there were] warriors by their generations, their number in the days of David [was] 22,600.”

[10:4]  ⁸ tn Heb “so these uncircumcised ones might not come and abuse me.”

[11:23]  ⁹ tn Heb “five cubits.” Assuming a length of 18 inches for the standard cubit, this individual would be 7.5 feet (2.3 m) tall.

[11:23]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “went down to.”

[12:17]  ¹¹ tn Heb “and David went out before them and answered and said to them.”

[17:17]  ¹⁷ tn Heb “and this was small in your eyes, O God, so you spoke concerning the house of your servant for a distance.”

[17:17]  ¹⁸ tn The translation “You have revealed to me what men long to know” is very tentative; the meaning of the Hebrew text is unclear. The text appears to read literally, “and you see me like the searching of man, that which is upward,” which is nonsensical. The translation above assumes the following: (1) The Qal verb translated “you see me” is repointed as a Hiphil, “you showed me,” (2) תּוֹר (tor) is understood in the sense of “searching, exploring,” and (3) הַמַּעֲלָה (hamma’alah) is taken in a temporal sense of “that which lies beyond.” Thus one could translate, “you have shown me what men search for, what lies beyond.”

[17:24]  ¹⁹ tn Following the imperative in v. 23b, the prefixed verbal form with vav (ו) conjunctive indicates purpose/result: “so it might become a reality.”

[17:24]  ²¹ tn Heb “and your name might be great permanently.” Following the imperative in v. 23b, the prefixed verbal form with vav conjunctive indicates purpose/result (parallel to the previous purpose/result clause): “[so]…you might gain lasting fame.”

[17:24]  ²³ tc Heb “the Lord who commands armies [traditionally, the Lord of hosts], the God of Israel, Israel’s God.” The phrases אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל (’elohey yisra’el, “God of Israel”) and אֱלֹהִים לְיִשְׂרָאֵל (’elohim lÿyisra’el, “Israel’s God”) are probably alternative readings that have been conflated in the text.
