| (0.30) | (Jer 35:1) | 2 tn Heb “The word that came to Jeremiah from the Lord in the days of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah, saying.” |
| (0.30) | (Jer 3:19) | 2 sn The imagery here appears to be that of treating the wife as an equal heir with the sons and of giving her the best piece of property. |
| (0.30) | (Isa 52:14) | 4 tn Heb “and his form from the sons of men.” The preposition מִן (min) here carries the sense “away from,” i.e., “so as not to be.” |
| (0.30) | (Isa 37:12) | 2 tn Heb “Did the gods of the nations whom my fathers destroyed rescue them—Gozan and Haran, and Rezeph and the sons of Eden who are in Telassar?” |

| (0.30) | (Isa 19:11) | 2 tn Heb “A son of wise men am I, a son of ancient kings.” The term בֶּן (ben, “son of”) could refer to literal descent, but many understand the word, at least in the first line, in its idiomatic sense of “member [of a guild].” See HALOT 138 s.v. בֶּן and J. N. Oswalt, Isaiah (NICOT), 1:371. If this is the case, then one can take the word in a figurative sense in the second line as well, the “son of ancient kings” being one devoted to their memory as preserved in their literature. |
| (0.30) | (Isa 1:1) | 2 tn Heb “The vision of Isaiah son of Amoz, which he saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem, in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, [and] Hezekiah, kings of Judah.” |

| (0.30) | (Psa 148:14) | 2 tn “[there is] praise for all his loyal followers, to the sons of Israel, the people near him.” Here “praise” stands by metonymy for the victory that prompts it. |
| (0.30) | (Psa 115:14) | 1 tn Heb “may he add to you, to you and your sons.” The prefixed verbal form is jussive, indicating this is a prayer. |
| (0.30) | (Psa 36:7) | 2 tn Heb “and the sons of man in the shadow of your wings find shelter.” The preservation of physical life is in view, as the next verse makes clear. |
| (0.30) | (Ezr 2:61) | 1 tc The translation reads וּמִן (umin, “and from”) rather than the reading וּמִבְּנֵי (umibbeney, “and from the sons of”) found in the MT. |
| (0.30) | (2Ch 30:26) | 1 tn Heb “and there was great joy in Jerusalem, for from the days of Solomon son of David, king of Israel, there was nothing like this in Jerusalem.” |
| (0.30) | (2Ch 26:22) | 1 tn Heb “As for the rest of the events of Uzziah, the former and the latter, Isaiah son of Amoz, the prophet, recorded.” |
| (0.30) | (2Ch 24:25) | 3 tc The MT has the plural בְּנֵי (bene, “sons”), but the final yod is dittographic. Note the yod that immediately follows. |
| (0.30) | (2Ch 13:9) | 2 tn Heb “whoever comes to fill his hand with a bull, a son of cattle, and seven rams, and he is a priest to no-gods.” |
| (0.30) | (2Ch 11:22) | 1 tn Heb “and Rehoboam appointed for a head Abijah son of Maacah for ruler among his brothers, indeed to make him king.” |

| (0.30) | (2Ch 2:12) | 1 tn Heb “who has given to King David a wise son knowing discernment and insight, who will build a house for the Lord and house for his kingship.” |
