[19:17]  ¹ tn Or “one of them”; Heb “he.” Several ancient versions (LXX, Vulgate, Syriac) read the plural “they.” See also the note on “your” in v. 19.

[19:17]  ² tn Heb “escape.”

[19:17]  ³ tn The Hebrew verb translated “look” signifies an intense gaze, not a passing glance. This same verb is used later in v. 26 to describe Lot’s wife’s self-destructive look back at the city.

[19:17]  ⁴ tn Or “in the plain”; Heb “in the circle,” referring to the “circle” or oval area of the Jordan Valley.

[16:26]  ⁵ tn The word רָשָׁע (rasha’) has the sense of a guilty criminal. The word “wicked” sometimes gives the wrong connotation. These men were opposing the Lord, and so were condemned as criminals – they were guilty. The idea of “wickedness” therefore applies in that sense.

[16:26]  ⁶ tn The preposition bet (בְּ) in this line is causal – “on account of their sins.”

[16:26]  ⁷ sn The impression is that the people did not hear what the Lord said to Moses, but only what Moses said to the people as a result.

[16:34]  ⁸ tn Heb “all Israel.”

[16:34]  ⁹ tn Heb “voice.”

[50:8]  ¹⁴ tn The words “People of Judah” are not in the Hebrew text but are implicit from the context. They have been supplied in the translation to clarify the subject of the address.

[50:8]  ¹⁵ tn Heb “the land of the Chaldeans.” See the study note on 21:4 for explanation.

[50:8]  ¹⁶ tn The words “Be the first to leave” are not in the text but spell out the significance of the simile that follows. They have been supplied in the translation for clarity.

[51:6]  ¹⁷ tn The words “you foreign people” are not in the text and many think the referent is the exiles of Judah. While this is clearly the case in v. 45 the referent seems broader here where the context speaks of every man going to his own country (v. 9).

[51:6]  ¹⁸ tn Heb “her.”

[51:6]  ¹⁹ tn Heb “paying to her a recompense [i.e., a payment in kind].”

[51:45]  ²⁰ tn Heb “Go out from her [Babylon’s] midst, my people. Save each man his life from the fierce anger of the Lord.” The verb has been paraphrased to prevent gender specific terms.
