[4:11]  ¹ tn Heb “Huram,” but here this refers to Huram Abi (2 Chr 2:13). The complete name has been used in the translation to avoid possible confusion with King Huram of Tyre.

[4:11]  ² tn Heb “Huram finished doing all the work which he did for King Solomon [on] the house of God.”

[7:11]  ³ tn Heb “and all that entered the heart of Solomon to do in the house of the Lord and in his house he successfully accomplished.”

[8:11]  ⁵ sn The phrase the City of David refers here to the fortress of Zion in Jerusalem, not to Bethlehem. See 2 Sam 5:7.

[20:9]  ⁷ tn Heb “sword.”

[20:9]  ⁸ tn Heb “for your name is in this house.” The “name” of the Lord sometimes designates the Lord himself, being indistinguishable from the proper name. In this case the temple is referred to as a “house” where the Lord himself can reside.

[20:9]  ⁹ tn Or “so that you may.”

[23:3]  ⁹ tn Heb “he”; the referent (Jehoiada the priest, cf. v. 8) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[36:17]  ¹³ tn Heb “killed with the sword.”

[36:17]  ¹⁴ tn Heb “in the house of their sanctuary.”

[36:17]  ¹⁵ tn Or “show compassion to.”
