Footnotes

  1. 23 The words “he gave him” are supplied in the translation for clarity and for stylistic reasons.
  2. 24 The Hebrew text reads מֶרְכָּבָה (merkavah, “chariot”), but the final he (ה) is probably dittographic—note the prefixed he (ה) on the immediately following word. It is preferable to read מֶרְכָּב (merkav, “seat”).
  3. 25 The Hebrew text does not have “their wings,” but the word כְּנָפַיִם (kénafayim, “wings”) has probably been accidentally omitted by homoioteleuton. Note that the immediately preceding לְפֹרְשִׂים (léforsim) also ends in mem (ם).
