[8:16]  ¹ tn Heb “was over.”

[20:24]  ² tn Heb “Adoram” (so KJV, NAB, NRSV, CEV), but see 1 Kgs 4:6; 5:14.

[20:24]  ³ tn Heb “was over the forced labor.”

[20:1]  ⁴ tn Heb “a man of worthlessness.”

[20:1]  ⁵ tn The expression used here יְמִינִי (yÿmini) is a short form of the more common “Benjamin.” It appears elsewhere in 1 Sam 9:4 and Esth 2:5. Cf. 1 Sam 9:1.

[20:1]  ⁶ tn Heb “the shophar” (the ram’s horn trumpet). So also v. 22.

[20:1]  ⁷ tc The MT reads לְאֹהָלָיו (lÿ’ohalav, “to his tents”). For a similar idiom, see 19:9. An ancient scribal tradition understands the reading to be לְאלֹהָיו (le’lohav, “to his gods”). The word is a tiqqun sopherim, and the scribes indicate that they changed the word from “gods” to “tents” so as to soften its theological implications. In a consonantal Hebrew text the change involved only the metathesis of two letters.

[4:3]  ⁸ tn Grk “And” Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate the logical sequence of events.

[4:3]  ⁹ tn Or “they arrested”; Grk “they laid hands on.”

[4:3]  ¹⁰ tn Or “prison,” “custody.”

[4:2]  ¹¹ tn Or “greatly annoyed,” “provoked.”

[4:2]  ¹² tn Or “proclaiming.”

[1:8]  ¹³ tn Or “to the ends.”
