[7:14]  ¹ tn Heb “by your tribes.”

[7:14]  ² tn Heb “takes forcefully, seizes.”

[7:14]  ³ tn Heb “houses.”

[7:14]  ⁴ tn Heb “by men.”

[7:17]  ⁵ tn See the note on “Zabdi” in 1 Chr 7:1.

[7:17]  ⁶ tn Heb “and he selected Zabdi.” The Lord is the apparent subject. The LXX supports reading a passive (Niphal) form here, as does the immediate context.

[7:16]  ⁷ tn Heb “by tribes.”

[7:18]  ⁸ tn Heb “his”; the referent (Zabdi) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[7:18]  ⁹ tn Heb “by men.”

[8:5]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “the people.”

[10:24]  ¹¹ tn Heb “Joshua.” The translation has replaced the proper name with the pronoun (“he”) because a repetition of the proper name here would be redundant according to English style.

[10:24]  ¹² tn Or “Draw near.”

[10:24]  ¹³ tn Or “drew near.”

[3:4]  ¹⁴ tn Heb “But there should be a distance between you and it, about two thousand cubits in measurement.”

[3:4]  sn The precise distance is uncertain, but the measurement designated אַמָּה (’ammah, “cubit”) was probably equivalent to approximately eighteen inches (one and one-half feet, or 45 cm) in length.

[3:4]  ¹⁵ tn Heb “do not approach it.”

[3:4]  ¹⁶ tn Heb “know.”

[17:4]  ¹⁷ tn Heb “The Lord commanded Moses to assign to us an inheritance in the midst of our brothers.” Since Zelophehad had no sons, “brothers” must refer to their uncles, as the next sentence makes clear.

[17:4]  ¹⁸ tn Heb “he.” The referent is probably Joshua, although Eleazar is mentioned first in the preceding list.

[17:4]  ¹⁹ tn Heb “and he assigned to them in accordance with the mouth [i.e., command] of the Lord an inheritance in the midst of the brothers of their father.”
