NET Notes: 1Ki 7:7

¹ tn Heb “and a porch for the throne, where he was making judicial decisions, the Porch of Judgment, he made.”

² tc The Hebrew text reads, “from the floor to the floor.” The second occurrence of the term הַקַּרְקָע (haqqarqa’, “the floor”) is probably an error; one should emend to הַקּוֹרוֹת (haqqorot, “the rafters”). See 6:16.
