Footnotes

  1. kLiterally “by name”
  2. lMost manuscripts add some form of the location such as “into her house” but there is considerable variation in the exact wording, so the shorter reading is preferred
  3. mLiterally “this was”
  4. nSome manuscripts have “of the Lord”
  5. *Here “and” is supplied because the previous participle (“sat”) has been translated as a finite verb
