[3:13]  ¹ tn Aram “in anger and wrath”; NASB “in rage and anger.” The expression is a hendiadys.

[3:13]  ² tn The Aramaic infinitive is active.

[3:13]  ³ tn Aram “these men.” The pronoun is used in the translation to avoid undue repetition.

[11:11]  ⁴ sn This king of the south refers to Ptolemy IV Philopator (ca. 221-204 B.C.).

[3:19]  ⁷ tn Aram “the appearance of his face was altered”; cf. NLT “his face became distorted with rage”; NAB “[his] face became livid with utter rage.”

[3:19]  ⁸ tn Aram “he answered and said.”

[8:6]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “the wrath of its strength.”

[2:12]  ¹³ tn Aram “was angry and very furious.” The expression is a hendiadys (two words or phrases expressing a single idea).

[8:7]  ¹⁶ tn Heb “him.”

[8:7]  ¹⁷ tn Heb “the ram.”

[8:7]  ¹⁸ tn Heb “stand before him.”

[8:7]  ¹⁹ tn Heb “he hurled him.” The referents of both pronouns (the male goat and the ram) have been specified in the translation for clarity.

[8:7]  ²⁰ sn The goat of Daniel’s vision represents Greece; the large horn represents Alexander the Great. The ram stands for Media-Persia. Alexander’s rapid conquest of the Persians involved three battles of major significance which he won against overwhelming odds: Granicus (334 B.C.), Isus (333 B.C.), and Gaugemela (331 B.C.).

[11:30]  ¹⁹ sn The name Kittim has various designations in extra-biblical literature. It can refer to a location on the island of Cyprus, or more generally to the island itself, or it can be an inclusive term to refer to parts of the Mediterranean world that lay west of the Middle East (e.g., Rome). For ships of Kittim the Greek OT (LXX) has “Romans,” an interpretation followed by a few English versions (e.g., TEV). A number of times in the Dead Sea Scrolls the word is used in reference to the Romans. Other English versions are more generic: “[ships] of the western coastlands” (NIV, NLT); “from the west” (NCV, CEV).

[11:30]  ²⁰ sn This is apparently a reference to the Roman forces, led by Gaius Popilius Laenas, which confronted Antiochus when he came to Egypt and demanded that he withdraw or face the wrath of Rome. Antiochus wisely withdrew from Egypt, albeit in a state of bitter frustration.

[11:30]  ²¹ tn Heb “show regard for.”

[3:22]  ²³ tn The Aramaic verb is active.

[3:22]  ²⁴ tn Aram “the flame of the fire” (so KJV, ASV, NASB); NRSV “the raging flames.”

[9:16]  ²⁵ tn Or “righteousness.”

[9:16]  ²⁶ tn Heb “your anger and your rage.” The synonyms are joined here to emphasize the degree of God’s anger. This is best expressed in English by making one of the terms adjectival (cf. NLT “your furious anger”; CEV “terribly angry”).
