¹ tn Heb “twenty cubits.” Assuming a cubit of 18 inches (45 cm), the length would have been 30 feet (9 m).

² tn Heb “twenty cubits.”

³ tn Heb “ten cubits.” Assuming a cubit of 18 inches (45 cm), the height would have been 15 feet (4.5 m).

⁴ tn Heb “the porch.”

⁷ tn Heb “the bread of the face/presence.”

¹⁰ tn Heb “his heart was high [i.e., proud] to destroy.”

¹¹ tn Or “was unfaithful to.”

¹³ tn Heb “Did not he, Hezekiah, eliminate…?” This rhetorical question presupposes a positive reply (“yes, he did”) and so has been translated here as a positive statement.

¹⁴ tn Heb “his”; the referent (the Lord) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

¹⁶ tn Heb “told Judah.” The words “the people of” are supplied in the translation for clarity. The Hebrew text uses the name “Judah” here by metonymy for the people of Judah.

¹⁹ tn Heb “strengthened himself.”

²⁰ tn Heb “the porch of the Lord.”

²² sn Perhaps these terms refer metonymically to the royal court, the priests and Levites, and the people, respectively.

²³ tn Heb “he”; the referent (the king) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

²⁵ tc The Hebrew text omits reference to the grain offerings at this point, but note that they are included both in the list in the second half of the verse (see note on “offerings” at the end of this verse) and in the parallel account in 1 Kgs 8:64. The construction וְאֶת־הַמִּנְחָה (vÿ’et-hamminkhah; vav [ו] + accusative sign + noun with article; “grain offerings”) was probably omitted accidentally by homoioarcton. Note the וְאֶת (vÿ’et) that immediately follows.

²⁶ tn Heb “to hold the burnt sacrifices, grain offerings, and the fat of the peace offerings.” Because this is redundant, the translation employs a summary phrase: “all these offerings.”
