1 tn Heb “Should I strike them down? I will strike them down.” In the Hebrew text the first person imperfect form is repeated; the first form has the interrogative he prefixed to it; the second does not. It is likely that the second form should be omitted as dittographic or that the first should be emended to an infinitive absolute.
2 tn Heb “my father.” The king addresses the prophet in this way to indicate his respect. See 2 Kgs 2:12.
3 tn Heb “rose up and conspired [with] a conspiracy.”
4 tn Heb “Beth Millo which goes down [toward] Silla.”
5 tn Heb “their places.”
