Source and translation notes
· Geʿez
Source edition: charles-1906-enoch
Selected edited-edition working text. Source review and these notes do not establish human-specialist, independent-manuscript or full-book certification. Selected clauses retain source-critical qualifications; their exact controls and translation notes are preserved below.
Chapter and verse addresses follow the supplied selected-edition POB records. Each available verse is displayed once; artwork does not certify source completeness.
- 42:1[a] The selected negative says Wisdom found no place to dwell. The following existence clause says her dwelling was in the heavens; it does not name an assigning agent or explicitly say that God assigned it to her. The selected star on that existence verb is retained.
- 42:2[a] The starred verb can involve taking a seat or mounting; “took her seat” follows its seating sense. The source does not name a throne or a vehicle, and neither is added here.
- 42:3[a] Her and she follow the selected feminine verbs. In ዘኢፈቀደት, Injustice is the subject of did not want; this is not those who did not want her. Wanted retains the wishing/desire sense, not a substituted seek verb. Those follows the later plural among them. Rain in a wilderness and dew on thirsty earth remain the selected comparisons; no moral or geographic correction is supplied.
