The NET note for Deut. 21:23 (#44) as shown below incorrectly refers to the JPS Torah Commentary as the JPS Textual Commentary. I went searching on Google to find info on this "new" commentary I had never heard of before. Tongue Tied

The idea behind the phrase cursed by God seems to be not that the person was impaled because he was cursed but that to leave him exposed there was to invite the curse of God upon the whole land. Why this would be so is not clear, though the rabbinic idea that even a criminal is created in the image of God may give some clue (thus J. H. Tigay, Deuteronomy [JPSTC], 198). Paul cites this text (see Gal 3:13) to make the point that Christ, suspended from a cross, thereby took upon himself the curse associated with such a display of divine wrath and judgment (T. George, Galatians [NAC], 238–39).

    The typo is definitely on Logos end... as I do not see it duplicated in my Accordance version.

    David,

    This is indeed a typo, and will be fixed in an upcoming release.

    Thanks for the report!
