¹ tn Heb “and he”; the referent (the servant) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

² tn Heb “your servant.”

³ sn The statement the dynasty of David will be like God is hyperbole to show the remarkable enhancements that will accompany the inauguration of the millennial age.

⁴ tn Heb “from his mouth” (so NAB, NASB, NRSV).

⁵ sn This is a vague allusion to people described in scripture and extra-biblical literature and may include Abraham and Sarah (Gen 18:2-15), Lot (Gen 19:1-14), Gideon (Judg 6:11-18), Manoah (Judg 13:3-22), and possibly Tobit (Tob 12:1-20).
