Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis
וַיֵּצְא֣וּ הָעָם֮ וַיָּבִיאוּ֒
and=they_went_out the,people and,brought
Here the story is leaving out some of the words that a sentence would ordinarily need in order to be complete. The meaning is clear from the context. Alternate translation: “the people went out and got branches”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
וַיַּעֲשׂוּ֩ לָהֶ֨ם סֻכּ֜וֹת אִ֤ישׁ עַל־גַּגּוֹ֙
and=they_made to/for=them booths (a)_man on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in roof,his
In this context, a man is an idiom that means “each person” and likely “each family.” It does not mean only an adult male. Alternate translation: “and each family built shelters on their roofs”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
עַל־גַּגּוֹ֙
on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in roof,his
In this culture, roofs were flat and were reached by stairs that led up to them from outside the house. So a shelter could stand on the flat roof and the family could use it as a temporary home. Alternate translation: “on their flat roofs”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
וּבְחַצְרֹ֣תֵיהֶ֔ם
and,in/on/at/with,courtyards,their
In this culture, houses were built around an open courtyard. So a shelter could be set up there, within the walls of the house. Alternate translation: “and in the courtyards within the walls of their homes”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
וּבְחַצְר֖וֹת בֵּ֣ית הָאֱלֹהִ֑ים
and,in/on/at/with,courts house_of the=ʼₑlhīmv
As in 6:10, here the book speaks of the temple as the “house of God,” as if it were God’s dwelling place. Alternate translation: “and in the temple courtyards”
Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis
וּבִרְחוֹב֙ שַׁ֣עַר הַמַּ֔יִם
and,in/on/at/with,square gate the=waters
Here the story is leaving out some of the words that a sentence would ordinarily need in order to be complete. The meaning is clear from the context, since this same location is described in 8:1 and 8:3. Alternate translation: “and in the square in front of the Water Gate”
Note 7 topic: translate-names
שַׁ֣עַר הַמַּ֔יִם
gate the=waters
This is the name of one of the gates of Jerusalem. See how you translated it in 3:26, 8:1, and 8:3. Alternate translation: “the Water Gate”
Note 8 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis
וּבִרְח֖וֹב שַׁ֥עַר אֶפְרָֽיִם
and,in/on/at/with,square gate Efrayim
Here the story is leaving out some of the words that a sentence would ordinarily need in order to be complete. The meaning is clear from the context. Alternate translation: “and in the square in front of the Ephraim Gate”
Note 9 topic: translate-names
שַׁ֥עַר אֶפְרָֽיִם
gate Efrayim
This is the name of another one of the gates of Jerusalem. Alternate translation: “the Ephraim Gate”
