[4:15]  ¹ tn Heb “Call for her.”

[4:15]  ² tn Heb “and he called her.”

[4:15]  ³ tn Heb “and he called for her and she stood in the door.”

[6:21]  ⁴ tn Heb “Should I strike them down? I will strike them down.” In the Hebrew text the first person imperfect form is repeated; the first form has the interrogative he prefixed to it; the second does not. It is likely that the second form should be omitted as dittographic or that the first should be emended to an infinitive absolute.

[6:21]  ⁵ tn Heb “my father.” The king addresses the prophet in this way to indicate his respect. See 2 Kgs 2:12.

[6:24]  ⁶ tn Heb “went up.”
