[104:24]  1 tn Heb “How many [are] your works, O Lord.” In this case the Lord’s “works” are the creatures he has made, as the preceding and following contexts make clear.

[104:24]  2 tn Heb “all of them with wisdom you have made.”

[55:8]  3 tn Or “For” (KJV, NAB, NASB, NIV).

[55:8]  4 tn Or “thoughts” (so many English versions).

[55:8]  5 tn Heb “are not.” “Like” is interpretive, but v. 9 indicates that a comparison is in view.

[55:8]  6 tn Heb “ways” (so many English versions).

[55:8]  7 tn Heb “are not.” “Like” is interpretive, but v. 9 indicates that a comparison is in view.

[55:9]  8 tn Or “the heavens.” The Hebrew term שָׁמַיִם (shamayim) may be translated “heavens” or “sky” depending on the context.

[55:9]  9 tn Heb “ways” (so many English versions).

[55:9]  10 tn Heb “are higher than.”

[55:9]  11 tn Or “thoughts” (so many English versions).

[1:11]  12 tn Grk “in whom,” as a continuation of the previous verse.

[1:11]  13 tn Grk “we were appointed by lot.” The notion of the verb κληρόω (klhrow) in the OT was to “appoint a portion by lot” (the more frequent cognate verb κληρονομέω [klhronomew] meant “obtain a portion by lot”). In the passive, as here, the idea is that “we were appointed [as a portion] by lot” (BDAG 548 s.v. κληρόω 1). The words “God’s own” have been supplied in the translation to clarify this sense of the verb. An alternative interpretation is that believers receive a portion as an inheritance: “In Christ we too have been appointed a portion of the inheritance.” See H. W. Hoehner, Ephesians, 226-27, for discussion on this interpretive issue.

[3:10]  14 tn Grk “that.” Verse 10 is a subordinate clause to the verb “enlighten” in v. 9.

[3:10]  15 tn Or “manifold wisdom,” “wisdom in its rich variety.”
