Jehoiachin’s Reign

36:9 Jehoiachin was eighteen ¹²  years old when he became king, and he reigned three months and ten days in Jerusalem. ¹³  He did evil in the sight of ¹⁴  the Lord.

[2:18]  ¹ tn Heb “made.”

[2:18]  ² tn Heb “carriers of loads.”

[2:18]  ³ tn Or “quarry workers”; Heb “cutters” (probably referring to stonecutters).

[2:18]  ⁴ tn Heb “and thirty-six hundred [as] supervisors to compel the people to work.”

[4:5]  ⁵ tn Heb “3,000 baths” (note that the capacity is given in 1 Kings 7:26 as “2,000 baths”). A bath was a liquid measure roughly equivalent to six gallons (about 22 liters), so 3,000 baths was a quantity of about 18,000 gallons (66,000 liters).

[8:13]  ⁶ tn The Hebrew phrase הַסֻּכּוֹת[חַג] (khag hassukot, “[festival of] huts” [or “shelters”]) is traditionally known as the Feast of Tabernacles. The rendering “booths” (cf. NAB, NASB, NRSV) is probably better than the traditional “tabernacles” in light of the meaning of the term סֻכָּה (sukkah, “hut; booth”), but “booths” are frequently associated with trade shows and craft fairs in contemporary American English. The nature of the celebration during this feast as a commemoration of the wanderings of the Israelites after they left Egypt suggests that a translation like “temporary shelters” is more appropriate.

[13:2]  ⁸ tn The parallel text in 1 Kgs 15:1 identifies his mother as “Maacah, the daughter of Abishalom” [=Absalom, 2 Chr 11:20). Although most English versions identify the mother’s father as Uriel of Gibeah, a number of English versions substitute the name “Maacah” here for the mother (e.g., NIV, NCV, CEV, NLT).

[14:9]  ⁹ tn Heb “a thousand thousands.”

[17:14]  ¹⁰ tn Or perhaps “from Judah, commanders of the thousands.”

[31:16]  ¹¹ tn Heb “in addition enrolling them by males from a son of three years and upwards, to everyone who enters the house of the Lord for a matter of a day in its day, for their service by their duties according to their divisions.”

[36:9]  ¹² tc The Hebrew text reads “eight,” but some ancient textual witnesses, as well as the parallel text in 2 Kgs 24:8, have “eighteen.”
