UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

וּ⁠בִ⁠ימֵי֙ יֽוֹיָקִ֔ים הָי֥וּ כֹהֲנִ֖ים רָאשֵׁ֣י הָ⁠אָב֑וֹת

and,in/on/at/with,days Joiakim they_were priests heads the,families

Here the book is leaving out some of the words that a sentence would ordinarily need in order to be complete. “Priests were” is an abbreviated way of saying “these are the priests who were.” Alternate translation: “These are the priests who were clan leaders while Joiakim was the high priest”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

וּ⁠בִ⁠ימֵי֙ יֽוֹיָקִ֔ים

and,in/on/at/with,days Joiakim

The term days is used here to refer a particular period of time. Alternate translation: “while Joiakim was the high priest”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

רָאשֵׁ֣י הָ⁠אָב֑וֹת

heads the,families

This seems to be an abbreviated way of saying “the heads of father’s houses.” The full expression “house of the father” or “father’s house” is used in 7:61. See how you translated it there, and review the note there if that would be helpful. Alternate translation: “clan leaders”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

רָאשֵׁ֣י

heads

Head here is a figurative way of saying “leader.” Alternate translation: “leaders”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

לִ⁠שְׂרָיָ֣ה מְרָיָ֔ה לְ⁠יִרְמְיָ֖ה חֲנַנְיָֽה

of,Seraiah Meraiah of,Jeremiah Hananya

In this list the book continues to leave out some of the words that a sentence would ordinarily need in order to be complete. Alternate translation: “Meraiah was the leader of the clan whose ancestor was Saraiah. Hananiah was the leader of the clan whose ancestor was Jeremiah”

Note 6 topic: translate-names

יֽוֹיָקִ֔ים & לִ⁠שְׂרָיָ֣ה מְרָיָ֔ה לְ⁠יִרְמְיָ֖ה חֲנַנְיָֽה

Joiakim & of,Seraiah Meraiah of,Jeremiah Hananya

These are the names of five men.
