[6:23]  ¹ tn Heb “ten cubits” (a cubit was a unit of measure roughly equivalent to 18 inches or 45 cm).

[7:27]  ² tn Heb “four cubits.”

[7:27]  ³ tn Heb “four cubits.”

[7:27]  ⁴ tn Heb “three cubits.”

[7:31]  ⁵ tn Heb “And its opening from the inside to the top and upwards [was] a cubit, and its opening was round, the work of a stand, a cubit-and-a-half.” The precise meaning of this description is uncertain.

[7:31]  ⁶ tn Heb “also over its opening were carvings and their frames [were] squared, not round.”

[8:15]  ⁷ tn The Hebrew text reads, “by his hand.”

[8:15]  ⁸ tn The Hebrew text reads, “by his mouth.”

[9:7]  ⁹ tn Heb “I will cut off Israel from upon the surface of the land.”

[9:7]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “and the temple which I consecrated for my name I will send away from before my face.”

[9:7]  sn Instead of “I will send away,” the parallel text in 2 Chr 7:20 has “I will throw away.” The two verbs sound very similar in Hebrew, so the discrepancy is likely due to an oral transmissional error.

[9:7]  ¹¹ tn Heb “will become a proverb and a taunt,” that is, a proverbial example of destruction and an object of reproach.

[16:2]  ¹² tn The Hebrew text has “because” at the beginning of the sentence. In the Hebrew text vv. 2-3 are one sentence comprised of a causal clause giving the reason for divine punishment (v. 2) and the main clause announcing the punishment (v. 3). The translation divides this sentence for stylistic reasons.

[16:2]  ¹³ tn Heb “walked in the way of Jeroboam.”

[16:2]  ¹⁴ tn Heb “angering me by their sins.”

[20:28]  ¹⁵ tn Heb “the man of God.”

[20:28]  ¹⁶ tn Heb “I will place all this great horde in your hand.”
