Discovery Box| (0.31) | (Jer 46:17) | 2 tn Heb “he has let the appointed time pass him by.” It is unclear what is meant by the reference to “appointed time” other than the fact that Pharaoh has missed his opportunity to do what he claimed to be able to do. The Greek text is again different here. It reads, “Call the name of Pharaoh Necho king of Egypt Saon esbeie moed,” reading קִרְאוּ שֵׁם (qirʾu shem) for קָרְאוּ שָׁם (qareʾu sham) and transliterating the last line. |
| (0.31) | (Jer 46:4) | 2 sn A Hurrian loanword into Semitic. The Akkadian use refers to mail armor for either persons or horses. |
| (0.31) | (Jer 41:10) | 1 tn Heb “the daughters of the king.” Most commentators do not feel that this refers to the actual daughters of Zedekiah, since they would have been too politically important to have escaped exile with their father. As noted in the translator’s note on 36:26, this need not refer to the actual daughters of the king but may refer to other royal daughters, i.e., the daughters of other royal princes. |
| (0.31) | (Jer 41:13) | 1 tn Heb “all the people who were with Ishmael.” However, this does not refer to his own troops but to those he had taken with him from Mizpah, i.e., the captives. The phrase is specifically clarified in the next verse: “the people whom Ishmael had taken captive from Mizpah.” Hence the phrase is translated here according to sense, not according to the literal wording. |
| (0.31) | (Jer 40:10) | 2 tn Heb “summer fruit.” “Summer fruit” is meaningless to most modern readers; dates and figs are what is involved. |
| (0.31) | (Jer 40:12) | 1 tn Heb “summer fruit.” “Summer fruit” is meaningless to most modern readers; dates and figs are what is involved. |
| (0.31) | (Jer 39:17) | 1 tn Heb “But I will rescue you on that day” (referring to the same day mentioned in the preceding verse). |
| (0.31) | (Jer 39:14) | 2 tn Heb “to bring him into the house.” However, it is unclear whether “the house” refers to Jeremiah’s house or to Gedaliah’s. The fact that Nebuzaradan later offers Jeremiah the option of going back to Gedaliah (40:5) suggests it is Gedaliah’s house, where Jeremiah would be looked out for in accord with Nebuchadnezzar’s command (v. 12). |
| (0.31) | (Jer 38:7) | 3 tn Heb “And the king was sitting in the Benjamin Gate.” This clause is circumstantial to the following clause, thus signifying, “while the king was…” Most commentators agree that the reference to sitting in the gate here likely refers to the same kind of judicial context that has been posited for 26:10 (see the translator’s note there for further references). Hence the translation renders “sitting” with the more technical “holding court” to better reflect the probable situation. |
| (0.31) | (Jer 38:1) | 1 sn Jehucal was a member of the delegation sent to Jeremiah by Zedekiah in Jer 37:3. |
| (0.31) | (Jer 36:16) | 2 tn According to BDB 808 s.v. פָּחַד Qal.1 and 40 s.v. אֶל 3.a, this is an example of the “pregnant” use of a preposition, where an implied verb has to be supplied in the translation to conform the normal range of the preposition with the verb that is governing it. The Hebrew text reads: “they feared unto one another.” BDB translates “they turned in dread to each other.” The translation adopted seems more appropriate in this context. |
| (0.31) | (Jer 35:4) | 1 tn Heb “the sons of Hanan son of Igdaliah, the man of God.” The reference to “sons” and to “man of God” fits the usage of these terms elsewhere to refer to prophets and their disciples (see BDB 43-44 s.v. אֱלֹהִים 3(b) and compare usage in 2 Kgs 4:40 for the former and BDB 121 s.v. בֵּן 7.a and compare the usage in 2 Kgs 4:38 for the latter). |
| (0.31) | (Jer 32:33) | 1 tn Heb “they have turned [their] backs to me, not [their] faces.” Compare the same idiom in 2:27. |
| (0.31) | (Jer 31:38) | 5 tn The word “westward” is not in the text but is supplied in the translation to give some orientation. |
| (0.31) | (Jer 31:39) | 1 tn The words “west” and “southward” are not in the text but are supplied in the translation to give some orientation. |
| (0.31) | (Jer 31:33) | 2 tn Heb “after those days.” Commentators are generally agreed that this refers to the return from exile and the repopulation of the land referred to in vv. 27-28 and not to something subsequent to the time mentioned in v. 30. This is the sequencing that is also presupposed in other new covenant passages such as Deut 30:1-6; Ezek 11:17-20; 36:24-28. |
| (0.31) | (Jer 31:30) | 1 sn The Lord answers their charge by stating that each person is responsible for his own sin and will himself bear the consequences. Ezek 18 has a more extended treatment of this and shows that it extends not just to the link between parents and children but to that between former and future behavior of the same individual. To a certain extent the principle articulated here is anticipatory of the statement in v. 34 that refers to the forgiveness of former sins. |
| (0.31) | (Jer 30:22) | 1 sn This was their highest privilege (cf. Exod 6:7, Lev 26:12; Jer 24:7) but also their greatest responsibility (cf. Jer 7:3; 11:4). It is a formula referring to a covenant relationship in which God pledges to protect, provide, and be present with his people and they in turn promise to be loyal and obedient to him (see Deut 26:17-18; 29:10-13). |
| (0.31) | (Jer 30:11) | 2 tn The translation “entirely unpunished” is intended to reflect the emphatic construction of the infinitive absolute before the finite verb. |
| (0.31) | (Jer 29:26) | 3 sn The Hebrew term translated lunatic applies to anyone who exhibits irrational behavior. It was used for example of David, who drooled and scratched on the city gate to convince Achish not to arrest him as a politically dangerous threat (1 Sam 21:14). It was often used contemptuously of the prophets by those who wanted to play down the significance of their words (2 Kgs 9:11; Hos 9:7, and here). |
