[1:17]  1 tn Heb “according to the word of the Lord which he spoke through Elijah.”

[1:17]  2 tn Heb “Jehoram replaced him as king…because he had no son.” Some ancient textual witnesses add “his brother,” which was likely added on the basis of the statement later in the verse that Ahaziah had no son.

[9:21]  3 tn The words “my chariot” are added for clarification.

[9:21]  4 tn Heb “and he hitched up his chariot.”

[9:21]  5 tn Heb “each in his chariot and they went out.”

[9:21]  6 tn Heb “they found him.”
