Judges 1:16

1:16 Now the descendants of the Kenite, Moses’ father-in-law, went up with the people of Judah from the City of Date Palm Trees to Arad in the desert of Judah, ¹  located in the Negev. ²  They went and lived with the people of Judah. ³ 

Judges 11:37

11:37 She then said to her father, “Please grant me this one wish. ⁴  For two months allow me to walk through the hills with my friends and mourn my virginity.” ⁵ 

[1:16]  ¹ tc Part of the Greek ms tradition lacks the words “of Judah.”

[1:16]  ² tn Heb “[to] the Desert of Judah in the Negev, Arad.”

[1:16]  ³ tn The phrase “of Judah” is supplied here in the translation. Some ancient textual witnesses read, “They went and lived with the Amalekites.” This reading, however, is probably influenced by 1 Sam 15:6 (see also Num 24:20-21).

[11:37]  ⁴ tn Heb “Let this thing be done for me.”

[11:37]  ⁵ tn Heb “Leave me alone for two months so I can go and go down on the hills and weep over my virginity – I and my friends.”
