Footnotes
- 30 Heb “Sheol and Abaddon” (שְׁאוֹל וַאֲבַדּוֹן (shé’ol va’adon); so , , ; cf. “Hell and destruction”; “the nether world and the abyss.” These terms represent the remote underworld and all the mighty powers that reside there (e.g., Prov 27:20; Job 26:6; Ps 139:8; Amos 9:2; Rev 9:11). The Lord knows everything about this remote region.
- 31 The construction אַף כִּי (’af ki, “how much more!”) introduces an argument from the lesser to the greater: If all this is open before the Lord, how much more so human hearts. “Hearts” here is a metonymy of subject, meaning the motives and thoughts (cf. “the thoughts of the living”).
- 32 Heb “the hearts of the sons of man,” although here “sons of man” simply means “men” or “human beings.”
