[10:30]  1 tn Heb “Because you have done well by doing what is proper in my eyes – according to all which was in my heart you have done to the house of Ahab – sons of four generations will sit for you on the throne of Israel.” In the Hebrew text the Lord’s statement is one long sentence (with a parenthesis). The translation above divides it into shorter sentences for stylistic reasons.

[11:19]  2 tn Heb “the Gate of the Runners of the House of the King.”

[11:19]  3 tn Heb “he”; the referent (the king) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
