[15:2]  ⁹ tn Heb “he will allow himself to be found by you.”

[28:23]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “the gods of Damascus, the ones who had defeated him.” The words “he thought” are supplied in the translation for clarification. The perspective is that of Ahaz, not the narrator! Another option is that “the kings” has been accidentally omitted after “gods of.” See v. 23b.
