[24:17]  1 tn Heb “his.”

[24:1]  2 tn Heb “In his days.”

[24:1]  3 tn Heb “came up.” Perhaps an object (“against him”) has been accidentally omitted from the text. See M. Cogan and H. Tadmor, II Kings (AB), 306.

[24:1]  4 tn The Hebrew text has “and he turned and rebelled against him.”

[3:15]  5 tn The term used refers to one who plays a stringed instrument, perhaps a harp.

[3:15]  6 tn Heb “the hand of the Lord came on him.” This may refer to what typically happened, “[for] when a musician played, the hand of the Lord would come upon him.”

[3:2]  7 tn Heb “in the eyes of.”

[1:10]  8 tn Heb “answered and said to the officer of fifty.”

[1:10]  9 tn Wordplay contributes to the irony here. The king tells Elijah to “come down” (Hebrew יָרַד, yarad), but Elijah calls fire down (יָרַד) on the arrogant king’s officer.
