1 sn Geshurites. Geshur was a city and its surrounding area somewhere northeast of Bashan (cf. Josh 12:5 ; 13:11, 13). One of David’s wives was Maacah, the daughter of Talmai king of Geshur and mother of Absalom (cf. 2 Sam 13:37; 15:8; 1 Chr 3:2).

2 sn Maacathites. These were the people of a territory southwest of Mount Hermon on the Jordan River. The name probably has nothing to do with David’s wife from Geshur (see note on “Geshurites” earlier in this verse).

3 sn Havvoth-Jair. The Hebrew name means “villages of Jair,” the latter being named after a son (i.e., descendant) of Manasseh who took the area by conquest.

4 tn Heb “the Passover.” The translation uses a pronoun to avoid redundancy in English.

5 tc The MT reading אֶל (’el, “unto”) before “the place” should, following Smr, Syriac, Targums, and Vulgate, be omitted in favor of ב (bet; בַּמָּקוֹם, bammaqom), “in the place.”

6 tn Heb “the Lord your God.” See note on “he” in 16:1.

7 tn Heb “the Lord’s.” See note on the word “his” in v. 5.

8 tn Heb “the word,” but a predictive word is in view here. Cf. NAB “his oracle.”

9 tn Heb “does not happen or come to pass.”

10 tn Heb “the Lord has.” See note on the word “his” in v. 5.

11 tn Heb “that is the word which the Lord has not spoken.”

12 tn Heb “the priests, the sons of Levi.”

13 tn Heb “in the name of the Lord.” See note on Deut 10:8. The pronoun has been used in the translation for stylistic reasons to avoid redundancy.

14 tn Heb “by their mouth.”

15 tn Heb “every controversy and every blow.”

16 tn Heb “If you are not careful to do.”

17 tn Heb “the wrath of the Lord and his zeal.” The expression is a hendiadys, a figure in which the second noun becomes adjectival to the first.

18 tn Heb “smoke,” or “smolder.”

19 tn Heb “the entire oath.”

20 tn Or “will lie in wait against him.”

21 tn Heb “blot out his name from under the sky.”
