[32:2]  1 tn Heb “and Jacob said when he saw them.”

[32:2]  2 sn The name Mahanaim apparently means “two camps.” Perhaps the two camps were those of God and of Jacob.

[103:20]  3 tn Heb “[you] mighty ones of strength, doers of his word, by listening to the voice of his word.”

[103:21]  4 tn Heb “all his hosts.”

[103:21]  5 tn Heb “his attendants, doers of his desire.”

[1:10]  6 sn The stem used here (Hitpael) with the verb “walk” (הָלַךְ, halakh) suggests the exercise of dominion (cf. Gen 13:17; Job 1:7; 2:2-3; Ezek 28:14; Zech 6:7). The Lord is here about to claim sovereignty over the nations. Cf. NAB, NASB, NRSV, NLT “to patrol”; TEV “to go and inspect.”
