Judges 1:26

Context
1:26 He 1  moved to Hittite country and built a city. He named it Luz, and it has kept that name to this very day.

Judges 13:17

Context
13:17 Manoah said to the Lord’s messenger, “Tell us your name, so we can honor you when your announcement comes true.” 2 

Judges 18:29

Context
18:29 They named it Dan after their ancestor, who was one of Israel’s sons. 3  But the city’s name used to be Laish.

1 tn Heb “the man.”

2 tn Heb “Who your name? For [when] your word comes [to pass], we will honor you.” Manoah apparently gets tongue-tied and uses the wrong pronoun (“who” instead of “what”). He starts to say, “Who are you?” But then he switches to “your name” as if he began the sentence with “what.” See R. G. Boling, Judges (AB), 222.

3 tn Heb “They called the name of the city Dan, after the name of Dan their father, who had been born to Israel.”
