[11:15]  ¹ tn Heb “he”; the referent (Jeroboam) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[11:15]  ² tn Heb “for the high places.”

[11:15]  ³ tn Heb “and for the goats and for the calves he had made.”

[11:1]  ⁴ tn Heb “he summoned the house of Judah and Benjamin, 180,000 chosen men, accomplished in war.”

[12:1]  ⁵ sn King Herod was Herod Agrippa I, the grandson of Herod I (Herod the Great). His mediocre career is summarized in Josephus, Ant. 18-19. This event took place in a.d. 42 or 43.

[12:1]  ⁶ tn Or “King Herod had some from the church arrested.”

[12:1]  ⁷ tn Or “to cause them injury.”

[14:9]  ⁸ tn Grk “speaking, who.” The relative pronoun has been replaced by the noun “Paul,” and a new sentence begun in the translation because an English relative clause would be very awkward here.

[14:9]  ⁹ tn Or “looked.”

[8:5]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “How long will they be able to be free from punishment?” This rhetorical question affirms that Israel will not survive much longer until God punishes it.
