2 Chronicles 30:7

30:7 Don’t be like your fathers and brothers who were unfaithful to the Lord God of their ancestors, ⁴  provoking him to destroy them, ⁵  as you can see.

[9:16]  ¹ tn The Hebrew text has simply “300,” with no unit of measure given.

[9:16]  ² sn This name was appropriate because of the large amount of cedar, undoubtedly brought from Lebanon, used in its construction. The cedar pillars in the palace must have given it the appearance of a forest. See 1 Kgs 7:2.

[29:8]  ³ tn Heb “and he made them [an object] of dread and devastation and hissing.”

[30:7]  ⁵ tn Heb “fathers” (also in vv. 19, 22).

[30:7]  ⁶ tn Heb “and he made them a devastation” (or, perhaps, “an object of horror”).
