[20:19] 1 tc Heb “you will do [something] a third time.” The translation assumes an emendation of the verb from שִׁלַּשְׁתָּ (shillashta, “to do a third time”) to שִׁלִּישִׁית (shillishit, “[on the] third [day]”).
[20:19] 2 tn Heb “you must go down greatly.” See Judg 19:11 for the same idiom.
[20:19] 3 tn Heb “on the day of the deed.” This probably refers to the incident recorded in 19:2.
