Discovery Box| (0.43) | (1Ch 2:7) | 2 tc The Hebrew text has “Achar,” which means “disaster,” but a few medieval Hebrew mss read “Achan.” See Josh 7:1. |
| (0.43) | (1Ch 1:41) | 1 tn Heb “sons.” The Hebrew text has the plural, but only one son is listed. For stylistic reasons the singular “son” was used in the translation. |
| (0.43) | (2Ki 25:6) | 2 tn The Hebrew text has the plural form of the verb, but the parallel passage in Jer 52:9 has the singular. |
| (0.43) | (2Ki 25:4) | 2 tn The Hebrew text is abrupt here: “And all the men of war by the night.” The translation attempts to capture the sense. |
| (0.43) | (2Ki 24:1) | 2 tn Heb “came up.” Perhaps an object (“against him”) has been accidentally omitted from the text. See M. Cogan and H. Tadmor, II Kings (AB), 306. |
| (0.43) | (2Ki 20:4) | 1 tc “Courtyard” (חָצֵר, khatser) is the reading tradition (Qere) also supported by the LXX, while the written text (Kethib) has הָעִיר (haʿir), “the city.” |
| (0.43) | (1Ki 13:30) | 1 tn “They” is the reading of the Hebrew text here; perhaps this is meant to include not only the old prophet but his sons (cf. v. 31). |
| (0.43) | (1Ki 12:31) | 1 tn The Hebrew text has the singular, but the plural is preferable here (see 1 Kgs 13:32). The Old Greek translation and the Vulgate have the plural. |
| (0.43) | (1Ki 12:9) | 1 tn In the Hebrew text the verb “we will respond” is plural, although it can be understood as an editorial “we.” The ancient versions have the singular here. |
| (0.43) | (1Ki 8:35) | 1 tn Heb “when.” In the Hebrew text vv. 35-36a actually contain one lengthy conditional sentence, which the translation has divided into two sentences for stylistic reasons. |
| (0.43) | (1Ki 8:33) | 1 tn Heb “when.” In the Hebrew text vv. 33-34 actually contain one lengthy conditional sentence, which the translation has divided into two sentences for stylistic reasons. |
| (0.43) | (1Ki 8:13) | 1 tn The words “O Lord” do not appear in the original text, but they are supplied for clarification; Solomon addresses the Lord in prayer at this point. |

| (0.43) | (1Ki 2:42) | 2 tn Heb “Is it not [true]…?” In the Hebrew text the statement is interrogative; the rhetorical question expects the answer, “Of course it is.” |
| (0.43) | (2Sa 22:26) | 4 tc Heb “a warrior of innocence.” The parallel text in Ps 18:25 reads, probably correctly, גֶּבֶר (gever, “man”) instead of גִּבּוֹר (gibbor, “warrior”). |
| (0.43) | (2Sa 19:11) | 2 tc The Hebrew text adds “to his house” (= palace), but the phrase, which also appears earlier in the verse, is probably accidentally repeated here. |

| (0.43) | (2Sa 15:19) | 1 tn The word “new” is not in the Hebrew text, but is supplied in the translation to make it clear that David refers to Absalom, not himself. |

| (0.43) | (2Sa 14:4) | 2 tn The word “me” is left to be inferred in the Hebrew text; it is present in the Syriac Peshitta and Vulgate. |
