19:2 Their assigned land included ¹⁵  Beer Sheba, ¹⁶  Moladah,

[6:3]  ¹ tn Heb “and go around the city, all [you] men of war, encircling the city one time.” The Hebrew verb וְסַבֹּתֶם (vÿsabbotem, “and go around”) is plural, being addressed to the whole army.

[6:4]  ² tn Heb “rams’ horns, trumpets.”

[6:8]  ³ tn Heb “when Joshua spoke to the people.”

[6:15]  ⁴ tn Heb “On the seventh day they rose early, when the dawn ascended.”

[6:15]  ⁵ tn Heb “and they went around the city according to this manner seven times, only on that day they went around the city seven times.”

[11:18]  ⁶ tn Heb “made war with.”

[11:18]  ⁷ tn Heb “for many days.”

[18:1]  ⁸ tn Heb “the tent of assembly.”

[18:1]  sn On the tent of meeting see Exod 33:7-11.

[18:1]  ⁹ tn Heb “and the land was subdued before them.”

[18:2]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “there were left among the sons of Israel who had not divided up their inheritance seven tribes.”

[18:5]  ¹¹ tn Heb “portions.”

[18:5]  ¹² tn Heb “stand.”

[18:5]  ¹³ tn Heb “the house.”

[18:9]  ¹⁴ tn Heb “went and passed through.”

[19:2]  ¹⁵ tn Heb “and they had in their inheritance.”

[19:2]  ¹⁶ tc The MT has “and Sheba” listed after “Beer Sheba.” The LXX suggests “Shema.” The Hebrew text appears to be corrupt, since the form “Sheba” duplicates the latter part of the preceding name. If Sheba (or Shema) is retained, the list numbers fourteen, one more than the number given in the concluding summary (v. 6).
