[3:13]  ¹ tn Heb “the wings of these cherubs were spreading twenty cubits.”

[3:13]  ² tn Heb “and they were standing on their feet, with their faces to the house.” An alternative translation of the last clause would be, “with their faces to the main hall.”

[6:6]  ³ tn Heb for my name to be there.” See also the note on the word “live” in v. 5.

[10:3]  ⁴ tn Heb “They sent and called for him.”

[24:8]  ⁵ tn Heb “and the king said [it] and they made a chest and placed it in the gate of the house of the Lord outside.”

[25:6]  ⁶ tn The Hebrew word כִּכַּר (kikar, “circle”) refers generally to something that is round. When used of metals it can refer to a disk-shaped weight made of the metal or, by extension, to a standard unit of weight. According to the older (Babylonian) standard the “talent” weighed 130 lbs. (58.9 kg), but later this was lowered to 108.3 lbs. (49.1 kg). More recent research suggests the “light” standard talent was 67.3 lbs. (30.6 kg). Using this as the standard for calculation, the weight of the silver was 6,730 lbs. (3,060 kg).

[29:33]  ⁷ tn The Hebrew term צֹאן (ts’on) denotes smaller livestock in general; depending on context it can refer to sheep only or goats only, but there is nothing in the immediate context here to specify one or the other.

[31:8]  ⁸ tn Heb “they blessed the Lord and his people Israel.”

[35:27]  ⁹ tn Heb “look, they are written.”
