[4:16]  ² tn Heb “Huram Abi made for King Solomon [for] the house of the Lord.”

[5:5]  ³ tn Heb “the tent of assembly.”

[23:11]  ⁵ tn The Hebrew word עֵדוּת (’edut) normally means “witness” or “testimony.” Here it probably refers to some tangible symbol of kingship, perhaps a piece of jewelry such as an amulet or neck chain (see the discussion in M. Cogan and H. Tadmor, II Kings [AB], 128). Some suggest that a document is in view, perhaps a copy of the royal protocol or of the stipulations of the Davidic covenant (see HALOT 790-91 s.v.).

[23:11]  ⁶ tn Or “they made him king and anointed him.”
