Footnotes
| Jon. 1:5 | The Hebrew phrase המלחים (hamalḥim) can be translated as "the sailors" or "the salts," depending on the context. The root מלח is associated with salt, and מלחים is the plural form, meaning "salts" in the literal sense. In historical and poetic contexts, מלחים can also refer to "sailors," due to the association of sailors with the sea and saltwater. Thus, the phrase המלחים can either mean "the salts" (as in the substance) or "the sailors" (metaphorically referring to those who work at sea). |
