[18:29]  1 tn Heb “when noon passed they prophesied until the offering up of the offering.”

[18:29]  2 tc The Old Greek translation and Syriac Peshitta include the following words here: “When it was time to offer the sacrifice, Elijah the Tishbite spoke to the prophets of the abominations: ‘Stand aside for the time being, and I will offer my burnt offering.’ So they stood aside and departed.”

[18:36]  3 tn Heb “at the offering up of the offering.”

[18:36]  4 tn The words “the altar” are supplied in the translation for clarification.

[18:36]  5 tn Heb “let it be known.”

[9:4]  6 tn Heb “who trembled at the words of the God of Israel.”

[9:4]  7 tn Heb “the exile”; the words “the people” are not in the Hebrew text, but are supplied in the translation for clarity.

[9:5]  8 tn The Hebrew word used here is a hapax legomenon. It refers to the self-abasement that accompanies religious sorrow and fasting.

[141:2]  9 tn Heb “may my prayer be established [like] incense before you, the uplifting of my hands [like] an evening offering.”

[9:21]  10 tn Heb “speaking in prayer.”

[9:21]  11 tn Heb “in the beginning.”

[9:21]  12 tn The Hebrew expression בִּיעָף מֻעָף (muaf biaf) is very difficult. The issue is whether the verb derives from עוּף (’uf, “to fly”) or from יָעַף (yaaf, “to be weary”). Many ancient versions and modern commentators take the first of these possibilities and understand the reference to be to the swift flight of the angel Gabriel in his coming to Daniel. The words more likely refer to the extreme weariness, not of the angel, but of Daniel. Cf. 7:28; 8:27; 10:8-9, 16-17; also NASB.
