Footnotes

  1. 25 Heb “you will do [something] a third time.” The translation assumes an emendation of the verb from שִׁלַּשְׁתָּ (shillashta, “to do a third time”) to שִׁלִּישִׁית (shillishit, “[on the] third [day]”).
  2. 26 Heb “you must go down greatly.” See Judg 19:11 for the same idiom.
  3. 27 Heb “on the day of the deed.” This probably refers to the incident recorded in 19:2.
