Footnotes
| 1Ki. 18:12 | In this context, it is not most appropriate to interpret אשר as "where." Generally, אשר is a relative pronoun that can mean "that," "which," or "who," and occasionally "where" when referring specifically to a location. However, in the phrase על אשר לא אדע, the preposition על ("upon" or "on") indicates that אשר is referring to an object—namely, "that which I do not know"—rather than a place. Therefore, rendering it as "where" would not capture the intended meaning, which is more abstract and general. |
| 1Ki. 18:12 | And your servant has feared the LORD from my youth. The phrase has been twisted or modified by most translators to force a 1st person sense where there isn't: English Standard Version All of these are untrue to the text.
