[9:26]  ³ tn Heb “the River.” In biblical Hebrew the Euphrates River was typically referred to simply as “the River.”

[13:17]  ⁴ tn Heb “struck them down with a great striking down.”

[13:17]  ⁵ tn Heb “and [the] slain from Israel fell, five hundred thousand chosen men.”

[22:10]  ¹⁶ tn Heb “house of Judah.”
