[22:14]  ¹ tn Heb “and look, in my affliction [or perhaps, “poverty”] I have supplied for the house of the Lord.”

[22:14]  ² tn See the note on the word “talents” in 19:6.

[22:14]  ³ tn Heb “a thousand thousands.”

[7:15]  ⁴ tn Some translations treat the terms שֻׁפִּים (shuppim) and חֻפִּים (khuppim) as proper names of individuals (“Huppim” and “Shuppim”), but others consider these forms to be plurals and refer to tribal or clan names.

[7:15]  ⁵ tn Heb “and the name of the second was Zelophehad.”

[7:2]  ⁶ tn Many English versions spell this name “Ibsam.”

[7:2]  ⁷ tn Many English versions retain a form of this name closer to the Hebrew, i.e., “Shemuel.”

[7:2]  ⁸ tn Heb “heads of the house of their fathers.”

[7:2]  ⁹ tn Heb “to Tola [there were] warriors by their generations, their number in the days of David [was] 22,600.”

[4:12]  ¹⁰ tn Or “of the city of Nahash.”

[4:13]  ¹¹ tc “Meonothai” is read here by some mss of the LXX, along with the Vulgate. The name apparently was dropped from the Hebrew text by haplography. Note that the name appears at the beginning of the next verse as well.

[4:14]  ¹² tn Heb “the father of Ge Harashim, for they were craftsmen.” The name “Ge Harashim” means “valley of craftsmen.”

[4:15]  ¹³ tn Heb “and the sons of Elah and Kenaz.” Kenaz was actually the son of Elah.

[4:17]  ¹⁴ tn The Hebrew text has simply, “and she gave birth to,” without identifying the subject. The words “Mered’s wife Bithiah” are added in the translation for clarification. See v. 18b, which mentions “Bethiah, whom Mered married.”

[4:18]  ¹⁵ tn Heb “took,” referring to taking in marriage.

[52:17]  ¹⁶ sn For discussion of the items listed here, see the study notes at Jer 27:19.

[52:18]  ¹⁸ sn These trimming shears were used to trim the wicks of the lamps.

[52:18]  ¹⁹ tn Heb “with which they served (or “fulfilled their duty”).”

[52:19]  ²⁰ sn The censers held the embers used for the incense offerings.

[52:19]  ²¹ sn These vessels were used for drink offerings.

[52:20]  ²² tc The translation follows the LXX (Greek version), which reflects the description in 1 Kgs 7:25-26. The Hebrew text reads, “the twelve bronze bulls under the movable stands.” הַיָּם (hayyam, “The Sea”) has been accidentally omitted by homoioarcton; note that the following form, הַמְּכֹנוֹת (hammÿkhonot, “the movable stands”), also begins with the article.

[52:21]  ²³ tn Heb “eighteen cubits.” A “cubit” was a unit of measure, approximately equivalent to a foot and a half.

[52:21]  ²⁴ tn Heb “twelve cubits.” A “cubit” was a unit of measure, approximately equivalent to a foot and a half.

[52:21]  ²⁵ tn Heb “four fingers.”
