[5:4]  ¹ tn Heb “he”; the referent (Naaman) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[11:3]  ¹ tn Heb “and he was with her [in] the house of the Lord hiding.”

[13:20]  ¹ tn Heb “and they buried him.”

[13:20]  ² tn Heb “entered.”

[13:20]  ³ tc The MT reading בָּא שָׁנָה (ba’ shanah), “it came, year,” should probably be emended to בְּבָּא הַשָּׁנָה (bÿba’ hashanah), “at the coming [i.e., ‘beginning’] of the year.” See M. Cogan and H. Tadmor, II Kings (AB), 148.

[17:5]  ¹ tn Heb “went up against.”

[18:33]  ¹ tn Heb “Have the gods of the nations really rescued, each his land, from the hand of the king of Assyria?” The infinitive absolute lends emphasis to the main verb. The rhetorical question expects the answer, “Of course not!”

[25:3]  ¹ tn The MT has simply “of the month,” but the parallel passage in Jer 52:6 has “fourth month,” and this is followed by almost all English translations. The word “fourth,” however, is not actually present in the MT of 2 Kgs 25:3.

[25:3]  ² tn Heb “the people of the land.”

[25:21]  ¹ tn Heb “struck them down and killed them.”

[25:21]  ² tn Heb “land.”
