[12:14]  1 tn Heb “one for a hundred the small, and the great for a thousand.” Another option is to translate the preposition -לְ (lamed) as “against” and to understand this as a hyperbolic reference to their prowess: “the least could stand against a hundred, the greatest against a thousand.”

[23:27]  2 tn Heb “for by the final words of David, they were the number of the sons of Levi, from a son of twenty years and upward.”
