¹ tn Heb “and it was on.”

² tn Heb “heavy” (כָּבֵד, kaved).

³ tn Literally “strong” (חָזָק, khazaq).

⁴ tn The word here is שֹׁפָר (shofar), the normal word for “horn.” This word is used especially to announce something important in a public event (see 1 Kgs 1:34; 2 Sam 6:15). The previous word used in the context (v. 16) was יֹבֵל (yovel, “ram’s horn”).

⁵ tn For clarity the phrase “the first” has been supplied.

⁶ tn For clarity the phrase “the next” has been supplied.

⁷ tn For clarity the phrase “the third” has been supplied.

⁸ tn As in Exod 26:35, the translation of “first” and “next” and “third” is interpretive, because the text simply says “under two branches” in each of three places.
