Judges 3:20-21

Context
3:20 When Ehud approached him, he was sitting in his well-ventilated 1  upper room all by himself. Ehud said, “I have a message from God 2  for you.” When Eglon rose up from his seat, 3  3:21 Ehud reached with his left hand, pulled the sword from his right thigh, and drove it into Eglon’s 4  belly.

1 tn Or “cool.” This probably refers to a room with latticed windows which allowed the breeze to pass through. See B. Lindars, Judges 1-5, 144.

2 tn Heb “word of [i.e., from] God.”

3 tn Or “throne.”

4 tn Heb “his”; the referent (Eglon) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
