| NET Notes |
1 sn Hebrew literature often assumes and reflects the male-oriented perspective of ancient Israelite society. The principle of the psalm is certainly applicable to all people, regardless of their gender or age. 2 tn Heb “he does not slander upon his tongue.” For another example of רָגַל (ragal, “slander”) see 2 Sam 19:28. 3 tn Or “his fellow.” 4 tn Heb “and he does not lift up an insult against one who is near to him.” |
