¹ tc The Hebrew text lacks the verb “worked.” It is implied, however, and has been supplied in the translation.

¹ tn Heb “the house of Eliashib.” This has not been repeated in the translation for stylistic reasons.

¹ tc The MT lacks the phrase אַחֲרָיו הֶחֱזִיק (’akharayv hekheziq, “after him worked”). This phrase is used repeatedly in Neh 3:16-31 to introduce each worker and his location. It probably dropped out accidentally through haplography.

² tn Heb “house of the king.”

¹ tc The MT preserves the anomalous Kethib form צְחִחִיִּים (tsÿkhikhiyyim); the Qere reads צְחִיחִים (tsÿkhikhim) which is preferred (BDB 850 s.v. צָהִיחַ; HALOT 1018 s.v. *צָהִיחַ).
