Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
רָאשֵׁ֣י הַמְּדִינָ֔ה
heads the,province
Head here is a figurative way of saying leader. Alternate translation: “provincial leaders”
Note 2 topic: grammar-connect-logic-contrast
וּבְעָרֵ֣י יְהוּדָ֗ה
and,in/on/at/with,towns Yehuda
This sentence explains a contrasting idea before the story goes on to develop the idea that the previous sentence introduces. This chapter is a list of the provincial leaders, priests, Levites, gatekeepers, temple servants, and singers who lived in Jerusalem. The previous sentence introduces the first part of that list, but before the list gives the names of the provincial leaders, it explains that most of the people who had returned to the province of Judah kept on living on their ancestral lands in other cities and towns. You could begin this sentence with a word like “but” to indicate this contrast.
וּבְעָרֵ֣י יְהוּדָ֗ה & בְּעָ֣רֵיהֶ֔ם
and,in/on/at/with,towns Yehuda & in/on/at/with,towns,their
These two phrases mean the same thing and you do not need to repeat both of them if that would be confusing for your readers.
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
אִ֤ישׁ בַּאֲחֻזָּתוֹ֙
(a)_man in/on/at/with,property,his_own
In this context, a man means “each person,” and the expression may be understood to indicate “each family.” Alternate translation: “each family on its own property”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / personification
יִשְׂרָאֵ֤ל
Yisrael
Here the list refers to all of the Israelites as if they were a single person, their ancestor, Israel. Alternate translation: “the Israelites”
Note 5 topic: translate-unknown
וְהַנְּתִינִ֔ים
and,the,temple_servants
As in 3:26, the term Nethinim describes servants who worked in the temple. Alternate translation: “the temple servants”
Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
וּבְנֵ֖י עַבְדֵ֥י שְׁלֹמֹֽה
and=the_sons servants Shəlmoh's
Sons means “descendants.” Alternate translation: “the descendants of the laborers who had worked for the kingdom”
Note 7 topic: translate-unknown
עַבְדֵ֥י שְׁלֹמֹֽה
servants Shəlmoh's
As in 7:57, this phrase refers to people whom Solomon first conscripted as laborers. They and their descendants remained conscripted laborers under later kings. Review the note to 7:57 if that would be helpful. Alternate translation: “laborers who had worked for the kingdom”
