2 Kings 15:5

Context
15:5 The Lord afflicted the king with an illness; he suffered from a skin disease 1  until the day he died. He lived in separate quarters, 2  while his son Jotham was in charge of the palace and ruled over the people of the land.

1 tn Traditionally, “he was a leper.” But see the note at 5:1.

2 tn The precise meaning of בֵית הַחָפְשִׁית (bet hakhofÿshit), “house of […?],” is uncertain. For a discussion of various proposals, see M. Cogan and H. Tadmor, II Kings (AB), 166-67.
