[1:40]  1 tn Heb “and all the people went up after him, and the people were playing flutes and rejoicing with great joy and the ground split open at the sound of them.” The verb בָּקַע (baqa’, “to split open”), which elsewhere describes the effects of an earthquake, is obviously here an exaggeration for the sake of emphasis.

[1:1]  2 tn Heb “was old, coming into the days” (i.e., advancing in years).

[1:1]  3 tn Or “garments.”

[4:5]  4 tn Heb “was over.”

[4:5]  5 tn Heb “close associate of”; KJV, ASV, NASB “the king’s friend” (a title for an adviser, not just an acquaintance).

[3:13]  6 tn Heb “a great shout.”
