[2:10]  1 tn Heb “All that generation were gathered to their fathers.”

[2:10]  2 tn Heb “arose after them.”

[2:10]  3 tn Heb “that did not know the Lord or the work which he had done for Israel.” The expressions “personally experienced” and “seen” are interpretive.

[3:9]  4 tn Heb “the Lord.”

[3:9]  5 tn Or “delivered.”

[3:9]  6 tn “Caleb’s younger brother” may refer to Othniel or to Kenaz (in which case Othniel is Caleb’s nephew).

[3:15]  7 tn Heb “the Lord.” This has been replaced by the pronoun (“he”) in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[3:15]  8 tn The phrase, which refers to Ehud, literally reads “bound/restricted in the right hand,” apparently a Hebrew idiom for a left-handed person. See Judg 20:16, where 700 Benjaminites are described in this way. Perhaps the Benjaminites purposely trained several of their young men to be left-handed warriors by restricting the use of the right hand from an early age so the left hand would become dominant. Left-handed men would have a distinct military advantage, especially when attacking city gates. See B. Halpern, “The Assassination of Eglon: The First Locked-Room Murder Mystery,” BRev 4 (1988): 35.

[3:15]  9 tn Heb “The Israelites sent by his hand an offering to Eglon, king of Moab.”

[3:20]  10 tn Or “cool.” This probably refers to a room with latticed windows which allowed the breeze to pass through. See B. Lindars, Judges 1-5, 144.

[3:20]  11 tn Heb “word of [i.e., from] God.”

[3:20]  12 tn Or “throne.”
