Nehemiah 9:10

1 tn Heb “the sons of Israel.”

2 tn The word “living” is not in the Hebrew text, but is implied. Some translations supply “settled” (cf. NAB, NIV, NLT).

3 tc The translation reads with some medieval Hebrew MSS and ancient versions בְּעָרֵיהֶם (be’arehem, “in their towns”), rather than the reading בֶּעָרִים (be’arim, “in the towns”) found in the MT. Cf. Nehemiah 7:72 HT [7:73 ET].

4 tn The Hebrew text adds the phrase “like one man.” This has not been included in the translation for stylistic reasons.

5 tn Heb “to.”

Nehemiah 9:24

1 tn Heb “the sons of the exile.”

Nehemiah 9:25

2 tn Heb “the heads of the fathers.” So also in v. 3.

3 tn Heb “Let us build with you.”

4 tc The translation reads with the Qere, a Qumran MS, the LXX, the Syriac Peshitta, and the Arabic version וְלוֹ (vÿlo, “and him”) rather than the Kethib of the MT, וְלֹא (vÿlo’, “and not”).

5 tn Heb “days.”

6 sn Esarhaddon was king of Assyria ca. 681-669 b.c.

7 sn The Assyrian policy had been to resettle Samaria with peoples from other areas (cf. 2 Kings 17:24-34). These immigrants acknowledged Yahweh as well as other deities in some cases. The Jews who returned from the Exile regarded them with suspicion and were not hospitable to their offer of help in rebuilding the temple.

Nehemiah 9:26

8 tn Heb “not to you and to us.”
