[3:17]  1 tc The translation reads וְעַל (vÿal, “and unto”) with several medieval Hebrew MSS and some MSS of LXX, rather than the MT reading עַל (’al, “unto”).

[7:73]  2 tn Heb “the sons of Israel.” So also in vv. 14, 17; 9:1.

[7:73]  3 tn The traditional understanding of the chapter and verse division here is probably incorrect. The final part of v. 73 is best understood as belonging with 8:1.

[8:13]  3 tn Heb “the heads of the fathers.”

[8:13]  4 tn Heb “were gathered to”; NAB, NIV “gathered around”; NRSV “came together to.”

[9:4]  4 tc Heb “Bani.” The translation reads “Binnui” (so also NAB) rather than the MT reading “Bani.” Otherwise there are two individuals with the same name in this verse. The name “Binnui” appears, for example, in Neh 10:10.

[9:4]  5 tn Heb “in a great voice.”

[12:1]  5 tn Heb “who went up.”
