1 tn Heb “Elijah’s cloak, which had fallen off him.” The wording is changed slightly in the translation for the sake of variety of expression (see v. 13).
2 tn Heb “man of God” (also in vv. 16, 22, 25, 27 [twice]).
3 tn Heb “man of God” (also in v. 9).

5 tn Heb “his”; the referent (Jehu) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
6 tn Heb “and they hurried and took, each one his garment, and they placed [them] beneath him on the bone [?] of the steps.” The precise nuance of גֶרֶם (gerem), “bone,” is unclear. Some suggest the nuance “bare” here; it may be a technical architectural term in this context.
