[4:7]  1 sn The Hebrew actually has the “table of faces,” and this has been traditionally rendered “table of shewbread.”

[4:7]  2 tn The Greek has “violet” instead of blue. This is also the case in vv. 8, 10, and 14.

[14:9]  3 sn The expression must indicate that they could destroy the enemies as easily as they could eat bread.

[14:9]  4 tn Heb “their shade.” The figure compares the shade from the sun with the protection from the enemy. It is also possible that the text is alluding to their deities here.
