[10:38]  ¹ tn Heb “And the priest the son of Aaron.”

[12:44]  ² tc The translation reads מִשְּׂדֶי (missÿde, “from the fields”) rather than the MT reading לִשְׂדֵי (lisdey, “to the fields”).

[12:44]  ³ tn Heb “for Judah.” The words “the people of” have been supplied in the translation for clarity, since “Judah” is a proper name as well as a place name.

[12:44]  ⁴ tn Heb “standing.”

[13:4]  ⁵ tc The translation reads the plural rather than the singular of the MT.

[13:9]  ⁶ tn On the usage of this Hebrew word see HALOT 478-79 s.v. כְּלִי.

[13:13]  ⁷ tc Probably one should read with the Lucianic Greek recension, the Syriac Peshitta, and the Vulgate וָאֲצַוֶּה (va’atsavveh, “and I commanded”) rather than the rare denominative verb וָאוֹצְרָה (va’otsÿrah, “and I appointed over the storeroom”) of the MT.

[13:13]  ⁸ tn Heb “be over”

[13:13]  ⁹ tn Heb “on their hand.”
