Footnotes
- 53 Older English versions and a few more recent ones render this phrase as either “excellent things” following the Qere (so , , , ), “officers,” or “heretofore” [day before yesterday], following the Kethib. However (as in most recent English versions) the Qere should be rendered “thirty,” referring to the number in the collection (cf. , , , ).
- 54 The term “sayings” does not appear in the Hebrew text but is supplied in the translation for the sake of clarity.
