NET Notes |
1 tn Heb “for ships belonging to the king were going [to] Tarshish with the servants of Huram.” This probably refers to large ships either made in or capable of traveling to the distant western port of Tarshish. 2 tn Heb “servants.” 3 tn Heb “the fleet of Tarshish [ships].” 4 tn Heb “the ships of Tarshish came carrying.” 5 tn The meaning of this word is unclear; some suggest it refers to “baboons.” NEB has “monkeys,” NASB, NRSV “peacocks,” and NIV “baboons.” |
