[1:17]  ¹ tn Heb “and they brought up and brought out from Egypt a chariot for 600 silver (pieces), and a horse for 150, and in the same way to all the kings of the Hittites and to the kings of Aram by their hand they brought out.”

[2:11]  ² tn Heb “Huram” (also in v. 12). Some medieval Hebrew mss, along with the LXX, Syriac, and Vulgate spell the name “Hiram,” agreeing with 1 Chr 14:1. “Huram” is a variant spelling referring to the same individual.

[12:10]  ³ tn Heb “runners” (also in v. 11).

[18:29]  ⁴ tn The Hebrew verbal forms could be imperatives (“Disguise yourself and enter”), but this would make no sense in light of the immediately following context. The forms are better interpreted as infinitives absolute functioning as cohortatives (see IBHS 594 §35.5.2a). Some prefer to emend the forms to imperfects.

[23:7]  ⁵ tn Heb “house.”

[23:7]  ⁶ tn Heb “and be with the king in his coming out and in his going out.”

[23:11]  ⁷ tn The Hebrew word עֵדוּת (’edut) normally means “witness” or “testimony.” Here it probably refers to some tangible symbol of kingship, perhaps a piece of jewelry such as an amulet or neck chain (see the discussion in M. Cogan and H. Tadmor, II Kings [AB], 128). Some suggest that a document is in view, perhaps a copy of the royal protocol or of the stipulations of the Davidic covenant (see HALOT 790-91 s.v.).

[23:11]  ⁸ tn Or “they made him king and anointed him.”

[25:17]  ⁹ tn The words “with his advisers” are supplied in the translation for clarification.

[25:17]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “let us look at each other [in the] face.” The expression refers here not to a visit but to meeting in battle. See v. 21.

[25:21]  ¹¹ tn Heb “looked at each other [in the] face.” See the note on the expression “Come on, face me on the battlefield” in v. 17.

[28:21]  ¹² tn Heb “divided up,” but some read חִלֵּץ (khillets, “despoiled”).
