| (0.38) | (Neh 7:7) | 1 tn Heb “the men of the people of Israel.” Some English versions translate as “the people from Israel” (NCV) or “the Israelite people” (NRSV), but “men” should be retained because the following numbers presumably include only adult males. |
| (0.38) | (2Ki 11:13) | 1 tc The MT reads, “and Athaliah heard the sound of the runners, the people.” The term הָעָם (haʿam), “the people,” is probably a scribal addition anticipating the reference to the people later in the verse and in v. 14. |
| (0.37) | (Rev 16:11) | 4 tn Grk “they did not repent” The addition of “still refused” reflects the hardness of people’s hearts in the context. |

| (0.37) | (Jer 14:17) | 3 tn Heb “virgin daughter, my people.” The last noun here is appositional to the first two (genitive of apposition). Hence it is not ‘literally’ “virgin daughter of my people.” |

| (0.37) | (Isa 1:16) | 1 sn Having demonstrated the people’s guilt, the Lord calls them to repentance, which will involve concrete action in the socio-economic realm, not mere emotion. |
| (0.37) | (Ecc 4:16) | 1 tn Heb “the people.” The term עַם (ʿam, “people”) can refer to the subjects of the king (BDB 766 s.v. עַם 2). |
