Discovery Box| (0.25) | (Mat 6:10) | 1 sn Your kingdom come represents the hope for the full manifestation of God’s promised eschatological rule reflected in the OT prophetic literature, the ongoing hope of the Jewish people, a hope which is subsumed by Christianity. |
| (0.25) | (Mat 6:9) | 1 sn Pray this way. What follows, although traditionally known as the Lord’s prayer, is really the disciples’ prayer. It represents how they are to approach God, by acknowledging his uniqueness and their need for his provision and protection. |
| (0.25) | (Mat 3:3) | 1 tn Grk “was spoken of by Isaiah the prophet, saying.” The participle λέγοντος (legontos) is redundant and has not been translated. The passive construction has also been rendered as active in the translation for the sake of English style. |
| (0.25) | (Mal 3:2) | 1 sn The refiner’s fire was used to purify metal and refine it by melting it and allowing the dross, which floated to the top, to be scooped off. |
| (0.25) | (Mal 1:6) | 1 tn The verb “respects” is not in the Hebrew text but is supplied in the translation for stylistic reasons. It is understood by ellipsis (see “honors” in the preceding line). |
| (0.25) | (Zec 14:17) | 1 sn The reference to any…who refuse to go up to Jerusalem makes clear the fact that the nations are by no means “converted” to the Lord but are under his compulsory domination. |
| (0.25) | (Zec 11:13) | 1 tn Heb “splendor of splendor” (אֶדֶר הַיְקָר, ʾeder hayeqar). This expression sarcastically draws attention to the incredibly low value placed upon the Lord’s redemptive grace by his very own people. |
| (0.25) | (Zec 9:15) | 1 tn Heb “they will drink and roar as with wine”; the LXX (followed here by NAB, NRSV) reads “they will drink blood like wine” (referring to a figurative “drinking” of the blood of their enemies). |
| (0.25) | (Zec 5:6) | 1 tn Heb “[This is] the ephah.” An ephah was a liquid or solid measure of about a bushel (five gallons or just under twenty liters). By metonymy it refers here to a measuring container (probably a basket) of that quantity. |
| (0.25) | (Zec 4:2) | 2 tc The MT, supported by a Qumran manuscript, reads “seven and seven,” which would be fourteen. But Hebrew normally says “four and ten.” The LXX simply reads “seven,” suggesting the MT has a case of dittography. |
| (0.25) | (Zec 2:8) | 1 tn Heb “After glory has he sent me” (similar KJV, NASB). What is clearly in view is the role of Zechariah who, by faithful proclamation of the message, will glorify the Lord. |
| (0.25) | (Zec 1:8) | 2 tc The LXX presupposes הֶהָרִים (heharim, “mountains”) rather than the MT הַהֲדַסִּים (hahadassim, “myrtles”), probably because of reference to the ravine. The MT reading is preferred and is followed by most English versions. |
| (0.25) | (Hag 1:13) | 1 tn Heb “Haggai, the messenger of the Lord, said by the message of the Lord to the people.” The Hebrew is repetitive and has been simplified in keeping with contemporary English style. |
| (0.25) | (Hag 1:10) | 2 sn This linkage of human sin to natural disaster is reminiscent of the curse brought upon the earth by Adam’s disobedience (Gen 3:17-19; see Rom 8:20-22). |
| (0.25) | (Hag 1:1) | 3 tn Heb “by the hand of.” This suggests that the prophet is only an instrument of the Lord; the Lord is to be viewed as the true author (see 1:3; 2:1; Mal 1:1). |
| (0.25) | (Zep 3:10) | 1 tn Or “Nubia”; Heb “Cush.” “Cush” is traditionally assumed to refer to the region south of Egypt, i.e., Nubia or northern Sudan, referred to as “Ethiopia” by classical authors (not the more recent Abyssinia). |
| (0.25) | (Zep 2:12) | 2 tn Heb “Cushites.” This is traditionally assumed to refer to people from the region south of Egypt, i.e., Nubia or northern Sudan, referred to as “Ethiopia” by classical authors (not the more recent Abyssinia). |
| (0.25) | (Hab 3:10) | 3 sn Lifting the hands here suggests panic and is accompanied by a cry for mercy (see Ps 28:2; Lam 2:19). The forces of chaos cannot withstand the Lord’s power revealed in the storm. |
| (0.25) | (Hab 2:17) | 2 sn The language may anticipate Nebuchadnezzar’s utilization of trees from the Lebanon forest in building projects. Lebanon and its animals probably represent the western Palestinian states conquered by the Babylonians. |
| (0.25) | (Hab 2:15) | 3 sn Metaphor and reality are probably blended here. This may refer to the practice of publicly humiliating prisoners of war by stripping them naked. See J. J. M. Roberts, Nahum, Habakkuk, and Zephaniah (OTL), 124. |
