[9:3]  ¹ tn Heb “all the wisdom of Solomon.”

[9:3]  ² tn Heb “house.”

[7:21]  ¹ tn Heb “and this house which was high/elevated.” The statement makes little sense in this context, which predicts the desolation that judgment will bring. Some treat the clause as concessive, “Even though this temple is lofty [now].” Others, following the lead of several ancient versions, emend the text to, “this temple will become a heap of ruins.”

[6:34]  ¹ tn Heb “When your people go out for battle against their enemies in the way which you send them.”

[6:34]  ² tn Heb “toward this city which you have chosen and the house which I built for your name.”
