[3:3]  1 tn Heb “Solomon loved the Lord by walking in.”

[3:3]  2 tn Or “policies, rules.”

[8:58]  3 tn Heb “to bend our hearts toward him.” The infinitive is subordinate to the initial prayer, “may the Lord our God be with us.” The Hebrew term לֵבָב (levav, “heart”) here refers to the people’s volition and will.

[8:58]  4 tn Heb “to walk in all his ways.”

[8:58]  5 tn Heb “keep.”

[11:22]  5 tn Heb “Indeed what do you lack with me, that now you are seeking to go to your land?”

[11:22]  6 tn Heb “and he said.”

[11:22]  7 sn So Hadad asked Pharaoh… This lengthy description of Hadad’s exile in Egypt explains why Hadad wanted to oppose Solomon and supports the author’s thesis that his hostility to Solomon found its ultimate source in divine providence. Though Hadad enjoyed a comfortable life in Egypt, when the Lord raised him up (apparently stirring up his desire for vengeance) he decided to leave the comforts of Egypt and return to Edom.

[16:19]  7 tn Heb “in the eyes of.”

[16:19]  8 tn Heb “walking in the way of Jeroboam and in his sin which he did to make Israel sin.”

[21:26]  9 tn The Hebrew word used here, גִלּוּלִים (gillulim) is always used as a disdainful reference to idols. It is generally thought to have originally referred to “dung pellets” (cf. KBL 183 s.v. גִלּוּלִים). It is only one of several terms used in this way, such as אֱלִילִים (’elilim, “worthless things”) and הֲבָלִים (havalim, “vanities” or “empty winds”).

[21:26]  10 tn Heb “He acted very abominably by walking after the disgusting idols, according to all which the Amorites had done.”

[22:48]  11 tn Heb “a fleet of Tarshish [ships].” This probably refers to large ships either made in or capable of traveling to the distant western port of Tarshish.
