[16:22]  ¹ sn Sacred pillar. This refers to the stelae (stone pillars; the Hebrew term is מַצֵּבֹת, matsevot) associated with Baal worship, perhaps to mark a spot hallowed by an alleged visitation of the gods. See also Deut 7:5.

[22:4]  ² tn Heb “you must not see.” See note at 22:1.

[22:4]  ³ tn Heb “and (must not) hide yourself from them.”

[22:4]  ⁴ tn The Hebrew text uses the infinitive absolute for emphasis, which the translation indicates with “be sure.”

[22:4]  ⁵ tn Heb “help him to lift them up.” In keeping with English style the singular is used in the translation, and the referent (“the animal”) has been specified for clarity.

[28:36]  ³ tc The LXX reads the plural “kings.”
