Footnotes
- 114 Heb “the lot is cast.” Because the ancient practice of “casting lots” is unfamiliar to many modern readers, the imagery has been updated to “throwing dice.” The proverb concerns the practice of seeking divine leading through casting lots. For a similar lesson, see Amenemope (18, 19:16–17, in 423).
- 115 Heb “all its decision.”
- 116 The point concerns seeking God’s will through the practice. The Lord gives guidance in decisions that are submitted to him.
