Footnotes

  1. 1 Chronicles 12:14 tn Heb “one for a hundred the small, and the great for a thousand.” Another option is to translate the preposition ל (lamed) as “against” and to understand this as a hyperbolic reference to their prowess: “the least could stand against a hundred, the greatest against a thousand.”
  2. 1 Chronicles 12:15 tn The word “River” is not in the Hebrew text, but has been supplied for clarity.
  3. 1 Chronicles 12:15 sn That is, March-April.
  4. 1 Chronicles 12:15 tn Heb “and they chased all the valleys to the east and to the west.”
