[13:3]  1 tn Heb “and the anger of the Lord burned against.”

[13:3]  2 tn Heb “he gave them into the hand of.”

[13:3]  3 tn Heb “all the days.”

[13:7]  4 tn Heb “Indeed he did not leave to Jehoahaz people.” The identity of the subject is uncertain, but the king of Syria, mentioned later in the verse, is a likely candidate.

[13:7]  5 tn Heb “them,” i.e., the remainder of this troops.

[13:7]  6 tn Heb “and made them like dust for trampling.”

[15:18]  7 tn Heb “in the eyes of.”

[15:18]  8 tn Heb “turn away from.”

[15:18]  9 tc The MT of v. 18 ends with the words, “all his days.” If this phrase is taken with what precedes, then one should translate, “[who encouraged Israel to sin] throughout his reign.” However, it may be preferable to emend the text to בְיֹמָיו (bÿyomav), “in his days,” and join the phrase to what follows. The translation assumes this change.

[15:19]  10 sn Pul was a nickname of Tiglath-pileser III (cf. 15:29). See M. Cogan and H. Tadmor, II Kings (AB), 171-72.

[15:19]  11 tn Heb “gave.”

[15:19]  12 tn Heb “Pul.” The proper name has been replaced by the pronoun (“him”) in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[15:19]  13 tn The Hebrew term כִּכָּר (kikkar, “circle”) refers generally to something that is round. When used of metals it can refer to a disk-shaped weight made of the metal or to a standard unit of weight, generally regarded as a talent. Since the accepted weight for a talent of metal is about 75 pounds, this would have amounted to about 75,000 pounds of silver (cf. NCV “about seventy-four thousand pounds”); NLT “thirty-seven tons”; CEV “over thirty tons”; TEV “34,000 kilogrammes.”

[15:19]  14 tn Heb “so his hands would be with him.”

[15:19]  15 tn Heb “to keep hold of the kingdom in his hand.”

[15:20]  16 tn Heb “and Menahem brought out the silver over Israel, over the prominent men of means, to give to the king of Assyria, fifty shekels of silver for each man.”

[15:29]  17 map For location see Map1 D2; Map2 D3; Map3 A2; Map4 C1.

[15:29]  18 tn Heb “them.”

[18:9]  19 tn Heb “went” (also in v. 13).

[18:9]  20 map For location see Map2 B1; Map4 D3; Map5 E2; Map6 A4; Map7 C1.

[18:2]  21 map For location see Map5 B1; Map6 F3; Map7 E2; Map8 F2; Map10 B3; JP1 F4; JP2 F4; JP3 F4; JP4 F4.

[18:2]  22 tn Heb “the name of his mother.”

[18:2]  23 tn The parallel passage in 2 Chr 29:1 has “Abijah.”

[1:5]  24 tn Heb “to him.”

[1:6]  25 tn Heb “said to him.”

[1:6]  26 tn Heb “Is it because there is no God in Israel [that] you are sending to inquire of Baal Zebub, the god of Ekron?” The translation seeks to bring out the sarcastic tone of the rhetorical question. In v. 3 the messengers are addressed (in the phrase “you are on your way” the second person plural pronoun is used in Hebrew), but here the king is addressed (in the phrase “you are sending” the second person singular pronoun is used).

[9:27]  27 tn Heb “from the hand of” (so NASB, NIV); NAB “from the power of.”

[9:28]  28 tn Heb “in the hand of” (so KJV, ASV); NAB “to the power of.”
