  • From the translation notes on Job 6:23

    The עָרִיצִים ('aritsim) are tyrants, the people who inspire fear (Job 15:20; 27:13); the root verb עָרַץ ('arats) means “to terrify” (Job 13:25).

    The NET translation

    Or ‘Deliver me from the enemy’s power, and from the hand of tyrants ransom me’?

    It’s exactly why I really like the NET translation. Getting context for why or how the original text gets translated to English is incredibly valuable to me. Here in this context I’m sure aritsim doesn’t literally mean tyrant, but the people became synonymous with the definition like “Shaka, when the walls fell” means failure.












  • Generally no, image quality on color lasers isn’t great but you can print them, just not great. I usually want glossy prints for frames but not often enough for me to print them at home on a consumer quality ink jet printer. I usually go to a print shop or somewhere that has a professional printer.

    Hell, even CVS Walgreens and Walmart have better photo printers than any consumer off the shelf model.
