1 tn “Caleb’s younger brother” may refer to Othniel or to Kenaz (in which case Othniel was Caleb’s nephew; so CEV).

2 tn Heb “he”; the referent (Caleb) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

3 tc The translation assumes the form אֳרְחוֹת (’orÿkhot, “caravans”) rather than אֳרָחוֹת (’orakhot, “roadways”) because it makes a tighter parallel with “travelers” in the next line.

4 tn Or “ceased.”

5 tn Heb “Ones walking on paths.”

6 tn Heb “take captive your captives.” (The Hebrew text uses a cognate accusative here.)

7 tn Heb “each one to his neighbor.”

8 tn Heb “this thing.”

9 tn Heb “they inquired and searched.” The synonyms are joined to emphasize the care with which they conducted their inquiry.

10 tn Heb “and said.” Perhaps the plural subject is indefinite. If so, it could be translated, “they were told.”

11 tn Or “Arise!”

12 tn Heb “did not draw his sword for he was afraid.”

13 tn Heb “hand.”

14 tn Heb “good.”

15 tn Heb “came.”

16 tn The Hebrew grammatical constructions of all three rhetorical questions indicate emphasis, which “really” and “dare to” are intended to express in the translation.

sn Jephthah argues that the Ammonite king should follow the example of Balak, who, once thwarted in his attempt to bring a curse on Israel, refused to attack Israel and returned home (Num 22-24).

17 tn The adjective “angelic” is interpretive (also in vv. 6, 9).

18 tn Heb “Look, you.”

19 tn Heb “and have not given birth.”

20 tn Heb “the woman.” For clarity this has been specified in the translation as “Manoah’s wife.”

21 tn The name appears to mean “sun-like” or “solar.”

22 tn Traditionally, “blessed.”
