[6:33]  1 tn The Hebrew text also has “look” here.

[6:33]  2 tn Heb “came down to him.”

[6:33]  3 tn Heb “Look, this is a disaster from the Lord.”

[7:1]  4 sn A seah was a dry measure equivalent to about 7 quarts.

[11:17]  7 tn Heb “and Jehoiada made a covenant between the Lord and [between] the king and [between] the people, to become a people for the Lord, and between the king and [between] the people.” The final words of the verse (“and between the king and [between] the people”) are probably accidentally repeated from earlier in the verse. They do not appear in the parallel account in 2 Chr 23:16. If retained, they probably point to an agreement governing how the king and people should relate to one another.

[13:4]  10 tn Heb “appeased the face of the Lord.”

[13:4]  11 tn Heb “and the Lord heard.”

[13:4]  12 tn Heb “for he saw the oppression of Israel, for the king of Syria oppressed them.”
