Translation commentary on 2 Chronicles 29:32

The number of the burnt offerings … all these were for a burnt offering to the LORD: The repetition of burnt offering may be superfluous in some languages and may be reduced to a single occurrence (so Good News Translation). Good News Translation restructures this whole verse for naturalness in English. Other languages may find it to be a helpful model.
