Judges 9:49

Context
9:49 So each of his men also cut off a branch and followed Abimelech. They put the branches 1  against the stronghold and set fire to it. 2  All the people 3  of the Tower of Shechem died – about a thousand men and women.

1 tn The words “the branches” are supplied in the translation for clarification.

2 tn Heb “they kindled over them the stronghold with fire.”

3 tn Or “men,” but the word seems to have a more general sense here, as the conclusion to the sentence suggests.
