[11:9]  1 tn Heb “according to all that.”

[11:9]  2 tn Heb “came.”

[11:1]  3 tn Heb “she arose and she destroyed all the royal offspring.” The verb קוּם (qum) “arise,” is here used in an auxiliary sense to indicate that she embarked on a campaign to destroy the royal offspring. See M. Cogan and H. Tadmor, II Kings (AB), 125.

[9:13]  4 tn Heb “his”; the referent (Jehu) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[9:13]  5 tn Heb “and they hurried and took, each one his garment, and they placed [them] beneath him on the bone [?] of the steps.” The precise nuance of גֶרֶם (gerem), “bone,” is unclear. Some suggest the nuance “bare” here; it may be a technical architectural term in this context.

[9:13]  6 tn Heb “they blew the trumpet.” This has been translated as a passive to avoid the implication that the same ones who shouted had all blown trumpets.

[9:13]  7 tn Or “has become.”
