1 tn Heb “his”; the referent (Jehoram) has been specified in the translation for clarity and for stylistic reasons.
2 tn Heb “in his days Edom rebelled from under the hand of Judah and enthroned a king over them.”
3 tn Heb “and Edom rebelled from under the hand of Judah until this day.”
4 tn Or “from Jehoram’s control”; Heb “from under his hand.” The pronominal suffix may refer to Judah in general or, more specifically, to Jehoram.
5 tn Heb “he.” This pronoun could refer to Judah, but the context focuses on Jehoram’s misdeeds. See especially v. 11.
