[4:11] 1 tn Heb “he”; the referent (Elisha) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
[4:11] 2 tn Heb “turned aside.”
[4:18] 4 tn Heb “to his father, to the harvesters.”
[8:22] 7 tn Heb “and Edom rebelled from under the hand of Judah until this day.”
[25:30] 10 tc The words “until the day he died” do not appear in the MT, but they are included in the parallel passage in Jer 52:34. Probably they have been accidentally omitted by homoioteleuton. A scribe’s eye jumped from the final vav (ו) on בְּיוֹמוֹ (bÿyomo), “in his day,” to the final vav (ו) on מוֹתוֹ (moto), “his death,” leaving out the intervening words.
