| (0.16225464375) | (Num 5:3) |
1 tn The imperfect tense functions here as a final imperfect, expressing the purpose of putting such folks outside the camp. The two preceding imperfects (repeated for emphasis) are taken here as instruction or legislation. |

1 tn Or “sentries.” Some translate “outpost” (NIV) or “garrison” (NAB, NRSV, NLT) here (see 1 Sam 13:3). The noun is plural in the Hebrew text, but the LXX and other ancient witnesses read a singular noun here. |
| (0.16225464375) | (2Ki 1:5) |
1 sn The narrative is elliptical and telescoped here. The account of Elijah encountering the messengers and delivering the Lord’s message is omitted; we only here of it as the messengers report what happened to the king. |
| (0.16225464375) | (1Ch 3:6) |
2 tn The MT reads “Eliphelet” here, but 1 Chr 14:5 lists the name as “Elpelet” and is followed by some English versions here (e.g., TEV, NLT). Another son named “Eliphelet” is listed in Kir+Heres&tab=notes" ver="">3:8. |
| (0.16225464375) | (1Ch 23:4) |

| (0.16225464375) | (Job 8:6) |
1 tn A verb form needs to be supplied here. Bildad is not saying to Job, “If you are pure [as you say you are].” Bildad is convinced that Job is a sinner. Therefore, “If you become pure” makes more sense here. |
| (0.16225464375) | (Job 13:8) |
1 sn The idiom used here is “Will you lift up his face?” Here Job is being very sarcastic, for this expression usually means that a judge is taking a bribe. Job is accusing them of taking God’s side. |
| (0.16225464375) | (Job 19:6) |
1 tn The imperative is used here to introduce a solemn affirmation. This verse proves that Job was in no way acknowledging sin in v. Kir+Heres&tab=notes" ver="">4. Here Job is declaring that God has wronged him, and in so doing, perverted justice. |

2 tn The parallel passage in Isa 40:26-27, as well as the context here, shows that the imperative is to be retained here. The LXX has “he sees.” |

4 tn Heb “a man of bloodshed and deceit.” The singular אִישׁ (’ish, “man”) is used here in a collective or representative sense; thus the translation “people” is appropriate here. Note the plural forms in vv. Kir+Heres&tab=notes" ver="">5-6a. |

| (0.16225464375) | (Psa 81:5) |
2 tn Heb “a lip I did not know, I heard.” Here the term “lip” probably stands for speech or a voice. Apparently the psalmist speaks here and refers to God’s voice, whose speech is recorded in the following verses. |

| (0.16225464375) | (Psa 94:8) |
