[19:2]  1 sn Lions probably refer to Judahite royalty and/or nobility. The lioness appears to symbolize the Davidic dynasty, though some see the referent as Hamutal, the wife of Josiah and mother of Jehoahaz and Zedekiah. Gen 49:9 seems to be the background for Judah being compared to lions.

[37:18]  1 tn Heb “the sons of your people.”

[15:2]  1 tn Most modern translations take the statement as a comparison (“how is vine wood better than any forest wood?”) based on the preposition מִן (min). But a comparison should have a word as an adjective or stative verb designating a quality, i.e., a word for “good/better” is lacking. The preposition is translated above in its partitive sense.

[18:2]  1 tn This word only occurs here and in the parallel passage in Jer 31:29-30 in the Qal stem and in Eccl 10:10 in the Piel stem. In the latter passage it refers to the bluntness of an ax that has not been sharpened. Here the idea is of the “bluntness” of the teeth, not from having ground them down due to the bitter taste of sour grapes but to the fact that they have lost their “edge,” “bite,” or “sharpness” because they are numb from the sour taste. For this meaning for the word, see W. L. Holladay, Jeremiah (Hermeneia), 2:197.

[20:29]  1 tn The Hebrew word (“Bamah”) means “high place.”

[8:6]  1 tn Heb “house.”

[17:12]  1 tn The words “of Israel” are not in the Hebrew text, but are supplied in the translation as a clarification of the referent.

[17:12]  2 sn The narrative description of this interpretation of the riddle is given in 2 Kgs 24:11-15.

[17:12]  3 map For location see Map5 B1; Map6 F3; Map7 E2; Map8 F2; Map10 B3; JP1 F4; JP2 F4; JP3 F4; JP4 F4.

[33:30]  1 tn Heb “sons of your people.”

[33:30]  2 tn Heb “one to one, a man to his brother.”

[33:30]  3 tn Heb “comes out.”

[21:7]  1 tn Heb “every spirit will be dim.”

[21:7]  2 sn This expression depicts in a very vivid way how they will be overcome with fear. See the note on the same phrase in 7:17.
