¹ tn On the meaning of the Hebrew word מִקְצוֹעַ (miqtsoa’), see HALOT 628 s.v. עַ(וֹ)מִקְצֹ. The term probably refers to an “angle” or “corner” somewhere on the eastern wall of Jerusalem.

³ tn Heb “wall of Ophel.” See HALOT 861 s.v. II עֹפֶל.

⁵ tn Heb “he spoke to their heart[s].”

⁵ tn Heb “at,” which in this case probably means “near.”
