[2:34] 1 tn Heb “every city of men.” This apparently identifies the cities as inhabited.
[2:34] 2 tn Heb “under the ban” (נַחֲרֵם, nakharem). The verb employed is חָרַם (kharam, usually in the Hiphil) and the associated noun is חֵרֶם (kherem). See J. Naudé, NIDOTTE, 2:276-77, and, for a more thorough discussion, Susan Niditch, War in the Hebrew Bible, 28-77.
[3:3] 3 tn Heb “was left to him.” The final phrase “to him” is redundant in English and has been left untranslated.
