[1:52]  ¹ tn Heb “if he is a man of strength [or ability].” In this context, where Adonijah calls himself a “servant,” implying allegiance to the new king, the phrase אִישׁ חַיִל (’ish khayil) probably carries the sense of “a worthy man,” that is, “loyal” (see HALOT 311 s.v. חַיִל).

[1:52]  ² tn Heb “but if evil is found in him.”

[14:22]  ³ tn Heb “in the eyes of.”

[14:22]  ⁴ tn Heb “and they made him jealous more than all which their fathers had done by their sins which they sinned.”

[15:3]  ⁵ tn Heb “his heart was not complete with the Lord his God, like the heart of David his father.”

[16:19]  ⁶ tn Heb “in the eyes of.”

[16:19]  ⁷ tn Heb “walking in the way of Jeroboam and in his sin which he did to make Israel sin.”
