Judges 20:43

Context
20:43 They surrounded the Benjaminites, chased them from Nohah, 1  and annihilated 2  them all the way to a spot east of Geba. 3 

1 tc The translation assumes the reading מִנּוֹחָה (minnokhah, “from Nohah”; cf. 1 Chr 8:2) rather than the MT’s מְנוּחָה (mÿnukhah, “resting place”).

2 tn Heb “tread down, walk on.”

3 tn Heb “unto the opposite of Gibeah toward the east.” Gibeah cannot be correct here, since the Benjaminites retreated from there toward the desert and Rimmon (see v. 45). A slight emendation yields the reading “Geba.”
