[2:25]  1 sn The two brief episodes recorded in vv. 19-25 demonstrate Elisha’s authority and prove that he is the legitimate prophetic heir of Elijah. He has the capacity to bring life and blessing to those who recognize his authority, or death and judgment to those who reject him.

[5:19]  2 tn Heb “he”; the referent (Elisha) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[5:19]  3 tn Heb “and he went from him a distance of land.” The precise meaning of כִּבְרַה (kivrah) “distance,” is uncertain. See BDB 460 s.v. כִּבְרַה, and HALOT 459-60 s.v. II *כְּבָרַה, and M. Cogan and H. Tadmor, II Kings (AB), 65.

[19:36]  3 tn Heb “and Sennacherib king of Assyria departed and went and returned and lived in Nineveh.”
