NET Notes |
1 tn The expression in the text is “quite near.” This indicates that it is easily attained, and that its end is near. 2 tn For the discussion of חָנֵף (khanef, “godless”) see Job 8:13. 3 tn The phrase is “until a moment,” meaning it is short-lived. But see J. Barr, “Hebrew ’ad, especially at Job 1:18 and Neh 7:3,” JSS 27 (1982): 177-88. |
