NET © Notes |
1 tn Heb “saying.” The infinitive goes back to “he sent”; i.e., “he sent, saying.” 2 tn Heb “Turn [masc. pl.] each person from his wicked way and from the evil of your [masc. pl.] doings.” See the same demand in 23:22. 3 tn Heb “gave to you and your fathers with reference to from ancient times even unto forever.” See the same idiom in 7:7. |
