| NET Notes |
1 tn Heb “these.” The demonstrative pronoun anticipates “priests and prophets” two lines later. 2 tn According to HALOT 135 s.v. III בלע, the verb form is derived from בָּלַע (bala’, “confuse”), not the more common בָּלַע (“swallow”). See earlier notes at 3:12 and 9:16. 3 tn Heb “in the seeing.” 4 tn Heb “[in] giving a decision.” |
