Discovery Box| (0.30) | (Jdg 12:3) | 4 tn The Hebrew adds “against me” here. This is redundant in English and has not been included in the translation for stylistic reasons. |
| (0.30) | (Jdg 11:40) | 2 tn Heb “go to commemorate.” The rare Hebrew verb תָּנָה (tanah, “to tell; to repeat; to recount”) occurs only here and in 5:11. |
| (0.30) | (Jdg 9:22) | 1 tn The Hebrew verb translated “commanded” (שָׂרַר, sarar), which appears only here in Judges, differs from the ones employed earlier in this chapter (מָשַׁל [mashal] and מָלַךְ [malakh]). |
| (0.30) | (Jdg 7:22) | 2 tc MT has “and throughout the camp,” but the conjunction (“and”) is due to dittography and should be dropped. Compare the ancient versions, which lack the conjunction here. |
| (0.30) | (Jdg 6:14) | 1 tc The LXX reads “the angel of the Lord” here and in v. 16. The translation follows the MT and adds “himself” to draw attention to the change. |
| (0.30) | (Jdg 2:20) | 4 tn Heb “and has not listened to my voice.” The expression “to not listen to [God’s] voice” is idiomatic here for disobeying him. |
| (0.30) | (Jdg 1:15) | 2 tn Some translations regard the expressions “springs of water” (גֻּלֹּת מָיִם, gullot mayim) and “springs” (גֻּלֹּת) as place names here (cf. NRSV). |
| (0.30) | (Jdg 1:3) | 3 tn Heb “I.” The Hebrew pronoun is singular, agreeing with the collective singular “Judah” earlier in the verse. English style requires a plural pronoun here, however. |
| (0.30) | (Jos 24:23) | 2 tn Heb “bend your heart toward.” The term לֵבָב (levav, “heart”) probably here refers to the people’s volition or will. |
| (0.30) | (Jos 17:18) | 1 tn The Hebrew text has simply “the hill country,” which must here include the hill country of Ephraim and the forest regions mentioned in v. 15. |
| (0.30) | (Jos 17:16) | 1 tn The Hebrew text has simply “the hill country,” which must here include the hill country of Ephraim and the forest regions mentioned in v. 15. |
| (0.30) | (Jos 17:12) | 1 tn Heb “sons”; “men” has been used in the translation because the context involves the conquest of cities; therefore, warriors (hence males) would be in view here. |
| (0.30) | (Jos 10:29) | 1 tn Heb “Libnah.” Repetition of the proper name here would be redundant according to English style, so the pronoun (“it”) has been employed in the translation. |
| (0.30) | (Jos 10:24) | 1 tn Heb “Joshua.” The translation has replaced the proper name with the pronoun (“he”) because a repetition of the proper name here would be redundant according to English style. |
| (0.30) | (Jos 8:20) | 2 tn Heb “and there was not in them hands to flee here or there.” The Hebrew term יָדַיִם (yadayim, “hands”) is idiomatic for “strength.” |
| (0.30) | (Jos 7:17) | 2 tn Heb “and he selected Zabdi.” The Lord is the apparent subject. The LXX supports reading a passive (Niphal) form here, as does the immediate context. |
| (0.30) | (Jos 3:8) | 2 tn Heb “stand in the Jordan.” Here the repetition of the word “Jordan” would be redundant according to contemporary English style, so it was not included in the translation. |
| (0.30) | (Jos 1:8) | 1 sn This law scroll must not leave your lips. The ancient practice of reading aloud to oneself as an aid to memorization is in view here. |
| (0.30) | (Deu 32:24) | 1 tn The Hebrew term קֶטֶב (qetev) is probably metaphorical here for the sting of a disease (HALOT 1091-92 s.v.). |
| (0.30) | (Deu 32:25) | 1 tn A verb is omitted here in the Hebrew text; for purposes of English style one suitable to the context is supplied. |
