Footnotes

  1. 44 Heb “his face.” See v. 19 as well.
  2. 45 The commander is probably the Roman commander, Lucius Cornelius Scipio.
  3. 46 The Hebrew here is difficult in that the negative בִּלְתִּי (biltiy, “not”) is used in an unusual way. The sense is not entirely clear.
  4. 47 Heb “his shameful conduct he will return to him.”
