The Key Word — הֶחֱזִ֗יקוּ, he.che.Zi.kugenerated
The verb חָזַק (chazaq) means 'to strengthen' or 'to repair.' In this context, it indicates the act of restoring the gate, which involves both physical labor and the idea of making something strong again.
This verb is in the Hiphil stem, which often denotes a causative action. Here, it suggests that Joiada and Meshullam were not just repairing but actively contributing to the strength and security of Jerusalem.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
The translations agree that the Jeshanah Gate was repaired by Joiada and Meshullam, with variations in wording but consistent meaning across the versions.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main verb הֶחֱזִ֗יקוּ (they repaired) governs the clause, with the subjects Joiada and Meshullam performing the action. The structure emphasizes the collaborative effort in the repairs.
The sentence follows a typical Hebrew structure, where the subject precedes the verb, and the objects (beams, doors, bolts, and bars) follow, clearly indicating what was repaired.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The Septuagint translates the verb הֶחֱזִ֗יקוּ as ἐποίησαν (they made), which broadens the meaning to include not just repairing but also constructing. This choice highlights the active role of the builders in creating a secure environment for the city.
This rendering reflects a slight interpretative shift, suggesting a focus on the act of making rather than solely repairing.
