[42:13]  1 tn The word for “seven” is spelled in an unusual way. From this some have thought it means “twice seven,” or fourteen sons. Several commentators take this view; but it is probably not warranted.

[42:14]  2 sn The Hebrew name Jemimah means “dove.”

[42:14]  3 sn The Hebrew name Keziah means “cassia.”

[42:14]  4 sn The Hebrew name Keren-Happuch means “horn of eye-paint.”
