[5:27]  1 tn Heb “cling to.”

[5:27]  2 tn Heb “he”; the referent (Gehazi) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[5:27]  3 tn Traditionally, “he went from before him, leprous like snow.” But see the note at 5:1, as well as M. Cogan and H. Tadmor, II Kings (AB), 66.

[18:6]  4 tn Heb “he hugged.”

[18:6]  5 tn Heb “and did not turn aside from after him.”

[18:6]  6 tn Heb “had commanded.”

[3:3]  7 tn Heb “held tight,” or “clung to.”

[3:3]  8 tc The Hebrew text has the singular, “it.” Some ancient witnesses read the plural, which seems preferable since the antecedent (“sins”) is plural. Another option is to emend the plural “sins” to a singular. One ancient Greek witness has the singular “sin.”
