1 tn Heb “the horn of oil.” This has been specified as olive oil in the translation for clarity.
2 tn Or “anointed.”
3 tn Heb “and all the people went up after him, and the people were playing flutes and rejoicing with great joy and the ground split open at the sound of them.” The verb בָּקַע (baqa’, “to split open”), which elsewhere describes the effects of an earthquake, is obviously here an exaggeration for the sake of emphasis.
