NET © Notes |
1 tn The Hebrew word translated “yellow jasper” is תַּרשִׁישׁ (tarshish); it appears to be a semiprecious stone, but its exact identity is somewhat uncertain. It may be the yellow jasper, although this is conjectural. Cf. NAB, NIV “chrysolite”; NASB, NRSV “beryl.” 2 tn Heb “torches of fire.” 3 tn Heb “The sound of his words” (cf. v. 9). |
