NET © Notes |
1 tn Heb “Yahweh of armies.” For an explanation of this title see the study note on 2:19. 2 tn Heb “Oppressed are the people of Israel and the people of Judah together,” i.e., both the people of Israel and Judah are oppressed. However, neither of these renderings is very poetic. The translation seeks to achieve the same meaning with better poetic expression. |
