21:19 Say to him, ‘This is what the Lord says: “Haven’t you committed murder and taken possession of the property of the deceased?”’ Then say to him, ‘This is what the Lord says: “In the spot where dogs licked up Naboth’s blood they will also lick up your blood – yes, yours!”’”

[14:24]  ¹ tc The Old Greek translation has “a conspiracy” rather than “male cultic prostitutes.”

[14:24]  ² tn Heb “they did according to all the abominable acts of the nations.”

[21:16]  ³ tc The Old Greek translation includes the following words here: “he tore his garments and put on sackcloth. After these things.”

[21:26]  ⁴ tn The Hebrew word used here, גִלּוּלִים (gillulim) is always used as a disdainful reference to idols. It is generally thought to have originally referred to “dung pellets” (cf. KBL 183 s.v. גִלּוּלִים). It is only one of several terms used in this way, such as אֱלִילִים (’elilim, “worthless things”) and הֲבָלִים (havalim, “vanities” or “empty winds”).

[21:26]  ⁵ tn Heb “He acted very abominably by walking after the disgusting idols, according to all which the Amorites had done.”

[21:15]  ⁶ tn Heb “Jezebel”; the proper name has been replaced by the pronoun (“she”) in the translation for stylistic reasons.
