[6:18]  ¹ tn Heb “Indeed, can God really live with mankind on the earth?” The rhetorical question expects the answer, “Of course not,” the force of which is reflected in the translation “God does not really live with mankind on the earth.”

[6:34]  ² tn Heb “When your people go out for battle against their enemies in the way which you send them.”

[6:34]  ³ tn Heb “toward this city which you have chosen and the house which I built for your name.”

[6:38]  ³ tn Or “soul.”
