NET © Notes |
1 tn The Hebrew text has “because” at the beginning of the sentence. In the Hebrew text vv. 2-3 are one sentence comprised of a causal clause giving the reason for divine punishment (v. 2) and the main clause announcing the punishment (v. 3). The translation divides this sentence for stylistic reasons. 2 tn Heb “walked in the way of Jeroboam.” 3 tn Heb “angering me by their sins.” |
