2 Chronicles 6:13

6:13 Solomon had made a bronze platform and had placed it in the middle of the enclosure. It was seven and one-half feet ¹  long, seven and one-half feet ²  wide, and four and one-half feet ³  high. He stood on it and then got down on his knees in front of the entire assembly of Israel. He spread out his hands toward the sky,

2 Chronicles 20:14

20:14 Then in the midst of the assembly, the Lord’s Spirit came upon Jachaziel son of Zechariah, son of Benaiah, son of Jeiel, son of Mattaniah, a Levite and descendant of Asaph.

2 Chronicles 23:20

23:20 He summoned ⁴  the officers of the units of hundreds, the nobles, the rulers of the people, and all the people of land, and he then led the king down from the Lord’s temple. They entered the royal palace through the Upper Gate and seated the king on the royal throne.

2 Chronicles 32:4

32:4 A large number of people gathered together and stopped up all the springs and the stream that flowed through the district. ⁵  They reasoned, ⁶  “Why should the kings of Assyria come and find plenty of water?”

2 Chronicles 7:7

7:7 Solomon consecrated the middle of the courtyard that is in front of the Lord’s temple. He offered burnt sacrifices, grain offerings, ⁷  and the fat from the peace offerings there, because the bronze altar that Solomon had made was too small to hold all these offerings. ⁸ 

2 Chronicles 22:11

22:11 So Jehoshabeath, ⁹  the daughter of King Jehoram, ¹⁰  took Ahaziah’s son Joash and sneaked him away ¹¹  from the rest of the royal descendants who were to be executed. She hid him and his nurse in the room where the bed covers were stored. So Jehoshabeath the daughter of King Jehoram, wife of Jehoiada the priest and sister of Ahaziah, hid him from Athaliah so she could not execute him.

¹ tn Heb “five cubits.” Assuming a cubit of 18 inches (45 cm), the length would have been 7.5 feet (2.25 m).

² tn Heb “five cubits.”

³ tn Heb “three cubits.” Assuming a cubit of 18 inches (45 cm), the height would have been 4.5 feet (1.35 m).

⁴ tn Heb “took.”

⁷ tn Heb “and they closed up all the springs and the stream that flows in the midst of the land.” Here אָרֶץ (’arets, “land”) does not refer to the entire land, but to a smaller region like a district.

⁸ tn Heb “land, saying.”

¹⁰ 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.

¹¹ 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.”

¹³ sn Jehoshabeath is a variant spelling of the name Jehosheba (2 Kgs 11:2).

¹⁴ tn Heb “the king”; the referent (King Jehoram, see later in this verse) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

¹⁵ tn Heb “stole.”
