| NET Notes |
1 tn Heb “the habit of the priests with the people [was this].” 2 sn The Hebrew word occurs only twice in the OT, here and again in v. 14. Its exact meaning is not entirely clear, although from the context it appears to be a sacrificial tool used for retrieving things from boiling water. |
