[9:16]  ¹ tc The MT lacks the words “by day,” but a number of ancient versions have this reading (e.g., Greek, Syriac, Tg. Ps.-J., Latin Vulgate).

[10:34]  ² tc The scribes sensed that there was a dislocation with vv. 34-36, and so they used the inverted letters nun (נ) as brackets to indicate this.

[10:34]  ³ tn The adverbial clause of time is composed of the infinitive construct with a temporal preposition and a suffixed subjective genitive.
