[1:2]  ¹ tn Heb “Get up!”

[1:2]  ² tn Heb “this Jordan”; the word “River” has been supplied in the translation for clarity (likewise in v. 11).

[1:2]  ³ tc Heb “Cross over this Jordan, you and all these people, to the land that I am giving to them, to the children of Israel.” The final phrase, “to the children of Israel,” is probably a later scribal addition specifying the identity of “these people/them.”

[2:19]  ⁴ tn Heb “Anyone who goes out from the doors of your house to the outside, his blood is on his head. We are innocent.”

[2:19]  ⁵ tn Heb “But anyone who is with you in the house, his blood is on our head if a hand should be on him.”

[3:17]  ⁷ tn Heb “and all Israel was crossing over on dry ground until all the nation had finished crossing the Jordan.”

[8:14]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “When the king of Ai saw, the men of Ai hurried and rose early and went out to meet Israel for battle, he and all his people at the meeting place before the Arabah.”

[8:14]  ¹¹ tn Or “know.”

[8:14]  ¹² tn Heb “that (there was) an ambush for him behind the city.”

[9:11]  ¹³ tn Heb “your servants.”

[10:5]  ¹⁶ tn Heb “and they camped against Gibeon and fought against it.”

[11:14]  ¹⁹ tn Heb “but all the people they struck down with the edge of the sword until they destroyed them.”

[12:1]  ²² tn Heb “and took possession of their land.”

[12:1]  ²³ tn Heb “beyond the Jordan, toward the rising of the sun.”

[23:4]  ²⁵ tn Heb “I have assigned by lots to you these remaining nations as an inheritance for your tribes.”

[23:4]  ²⁶ tn Heb “the Great Sea,” the typical designation for the Mediterranean Sea.

[23:4]  ²⁷ tn Heb “from the Jordan and all the nations which I cut off and the Great Sea [at] the place where the sun sets.” The relationship of the second half of the verse, which mentions nations already conquered, to the first half, which speaks of “remaining nations,” is difficult to understand.

[24:31]  ²⁸ tn Or “served.”

[24:31]  ²⁹ tn Heb “all the days of Joshua and all the days of the elders who outlived him.”

[24:31]  ³⁰ tn Heb “who knew all the work of the Lord which he had done for Israel.”
