[3:7]  ¹ tn Heb “to the seat.”

[3:30]  ² tc The translation reads אַחֲרָיו (’akharayv, “after him”) with the Qere and many medieval Hebrew MSS, rather than the reading אַחֲרֵי (’akharey, “after me”) of the MT. So also in v. 31.

[3:31]  ³ tn Heb “Miphkad Gate” (so TEV; KJV similar); NRSV “Muster Gate.”

[4:7]  ⁴ sn Chapter 4 begins here in the Hebrew text (BHS). See the note at 4:1.
