[32:10]  ¹ tn Heb “On what are you trusting that [you] are living during the siege in Jerusalem.”

[34:5]  ² tn Heb “the priests”; the qualifying adjective “pagan” has been supplied in the translation for clarity.

[21:10]  ³ tn Heb “and Edom rebelled from under the hand of Judah until this day.”

[21:10]  ⁴ tn Or “from Jehoram’s control”; Heb “from under his hand.” The pronominal suffix may refer to Judah in general or, more specifically, to Jehoram.

[21:10]  ⁵ tn Heb “he.” This pronoun could refer to Judah, but the context focuses on Jehoram’s misdeeds. See especially v. 11.

[25:10]  ⁶ tn Heb “and Amaziah separated them, the troops who came to him from Ephraim, to go to their place.”

[6:23]  ⁷ tn Heb “and you, hear [from] heaven and act and judge your servants by repaying the guilty, to give his way on his head, and to declare the innocent to be innocent, to give to him according to his innocence.”

[23:8]  ⁸ tn Heb “all Judah.” The words “the men of” are supplied in the translation for clarity. The Hebrew text uses the name “Judah” by metonymy for the men of Judah.

[26:21]  ⁹ tn The precise meaning of בֵּית הַחָפְשִׁית (bet hakhafshiyt, “house of [?]”) is uncertain. NASB, NIV, NRSV all have “in a separate house”; NEB has “in his own house…relieved of all duties.” For a discussion of various proposals, see M. Cogan and H. Tadmor, II Kings (AB), 166-67.

[5:11]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “and when the priests went from the holy place.” The syntactical relationship of this temporal clause to the following context is unclear. Perhaps the thought is completed in v. 14 after a lengthy digression.

[5:11]  ¹¹ tn Heb “Indeed [or “for”] all the priests who were found consecrated themselves without guarding divisions.”
