1 tn Heb “barley and straw for the horses and the steeds they brought to the place which was there, each according to his measure.”
2 sn From Egypt. Because Que is also mentioned, some prefer to see in vv. 28-29 a reference to Mutsur. Que and Mutsur were located in Cilicia/Cappadocia (in modern southern Turkey). See HALOT 625 s.v. מִצְרַיִם.
3 tn Heb “struck down Aram with a great striking down.”
