Discovery Box| (0.30) | (Job 19:6) | 3 tn The verb נָקַף (naqaf) means “to turn; to make a circle; to encircle.” It means that God has encircled or engulfed Job with his net. |
| (0.30) | (Job 19:10) | 4 tn The NEB has “my tent rope,” but that seems too contrived here. It is absurd to pull up a tent-rope like a tree. |
| (0.30) | (Job 19:4) | 2 tn There is a long addition in the LXX: “in having spoken words which it is not right to speak, and my words err, and are unreasonable.” |
| (0.30) | (Job 18:21) | 1 tn The term is in the plural, “the tabernacles”; it should be taken as a plural of local extension (see GKC 397 §124.b). |
| (0.30) | (Job 18:21) | 2 tn The word “place” is in construct; the clause following it replaces the genitive: “this is the place of—he has not known God.” |
| (0.30) | (Job 18:11) | 1 sn Bildad is referring here to all the things that afflict a person and cause terror. It would then be a metonymy of effect, the cause being the afflictions. |
| (0.30) | (Job 18:3) | 1 tn The verb נִטְמִינוּ (nitminu) has been explained from different roots. Some take it from תָּמֵא (tameʾ, “to be unclean”), and translate it “Why should we be unclean in your eyes?” Most would connect it to טָמַם (tamam, “to stop up”), meaning “to be stupid” in the Niphal. Another suggestion is to follow the LXX and read from דָּמַם (damam, “to be reduced to silence”). Others take it from דָּמָּה (damah) with a meaning “to be like.” But what is missing is the term of comparison—like what? Various suggestions have been made, but all are simply conjectures. |
| (0.30) | (Job 17:11) | 1 tn This term usually means “plans; devices” in a bad sense, although it can be used of God’s plans (see e.g., Zech 8:15). |
| (0.30) | (Job 16:22) | 2 tn The verbal expression “I will not return” serves here to modify the journey that he will take. It is “the road [of] I will not return.” |
| (0.30) | (Job 16:18) | 2 tn The word is simply “a place,” but in the context it surely means a hidden place, a secret place that would never be discovered (see 18:21). |
| (0.30) | (Job 15:2) | 2 tn The image is rather graphic. It is saying that he puffs himself up with the wind and then brings out of his mouth blasts of this wind. |
| (0.30) | (Job 13:27) | 2 tn The word means “ways; roads; paths,” but it is used here in the sense of the “way” in which one goes about his activities. |
| (0.30) | (Job 14:3) | 2 tn The verse opens with אַף־עַל־זֶה (ʾaf ʿal zeh), meaning “even on such a one!” It is an exclamation of surprise. |
| (0.30) | (Job 13:28) | 1 tn Heb “and he.” Some of the commentators move the verse and put it after Job 14:2, 3 or 6. |
| (0.30) | (Job 13:10) | 1 tn The verbal idea is intensified with the infinitive absolute. This is the same verb used in v. 3; here it would have the sense of “rebuke, convict.” |
| (0.30) | (Job 13:7) | 1 tn Heb “speak iniquity.” The form functions adverbially. The noun עַוְלָה (ʿavlah) means “perversion; injustice; iniquity; falsehood.” Here it is parallel to רְמִיָּה (remiyyah, “fraud; deceit; treachery”). |
| (0.30) | (Job 13:2) | 3 tn The verb “fall” is used here as it was in Job 4:13 to express becoming lower than someone, i.e., inferior. |
| (0.30) | (Job 12:23) | 2 tn The difficulty with the verb נָחָה (nakhah) is that it means “to lead; to guide,” but not “to lead away” or “to disperse,” unless this passage provides the context for such a meaning. Moreover, it never has a negative connotation. Some vocalize it וַיַּנִּיחֶם (vayyannikhem), from נוּחַ (nuakh), the causative meaning of “rest,” or “abandon” (Driver, Gray, Gordis). But even there it would mean “leave in peace.” Blommerde suggests the second part is antithetical parallelism, and so should be positive. So Ball proposed וַיִּמְחֶם (vayyimkhem) from מָחָה (makhah): “and he cuts them off.” |
| (0.30) | (Job 12:11) | 3 tn The final preposition with its suffix is to be understood as a pleonastic dativus ethicus and not translated (see GKC 439 §135.i). |
| (0.30) | (Job 11:11) | 3 tn E. Dhorme (Job, 162) reads the prepositional phrase “to him” rather than the negative; he translates the line as “he sees iniquity and observes it closely.” |
