¹tn Heb “son.” The Hebrew text has the singular, but the following list contains more than one name.

²tn The Hebrew text reads “Ephrathah” here, but see v. 19, which mentions “Ephrath” as the wife of Hur.

³sn See the note on the word “concubine” in 1:32.

⁴tn Heb “and those who lived in Netaim and Gederah; with the king in his work they lived there.”

⁵tn Heb “their brothers, the Levites.”

⁶tn Heb “were assigned to all the work of the tabernacle of the house of God.”

⁷tn The Hebrew text has the plural “sons,” but only one son is listed.

⁸tn The Hebrew text has the plural “sons,” but only one son is listed.

⁹tn Heb “and the inhabitants, the first who [were] in their property in their cities, Israel, the priests, the Levites, and the temple servants.”

¹⁰tn Heb “and all these men were heads of fathers for the house of their fathers.”

¹¹tn Heb “and they and their sons to the gates of the house of the Lord, of the house of the tent, [were assigned] as guards.”

¹²tc The Hebrew text has בֹּכְרוּ (bokhÿru), which some understand as a name: “Bocheru” (so, e.g., NEB, NASB, NIV, NRSV, NLT). But the form should probably be revocalized בְֹּכרוֹ (bÿkhoro, “his firstborn”). A name has accidentally dropped from the list, and a scribe apparently read בֹּכְרוּ as one of the names. Cf. also 1 Chr 8:38.

¹³tn Heb “with all strength.”

¹⁴tn Heb “with songs and with zithers [meaning uncertain] and with harps.” Due to the collocation with “harps,” some type of stringed instrument is probably in view.

¹⁵tn The meaning of the Hebrew word עֲלָמוֹת (’alamot) is uncertain; perhaps it refers to a particular style of music. See HALOT 835-36 s.v. עַלְמָה.

¹⁶tc The MT reads “Zina” here and “Zizah” in v. 11. One Hebrew ms, the LXX, and the Vulgate, harmonizing the form of the name to that found in v. 11, read “Zizah” here.

¹⁷sn Verses 8-10 are confusing. Two different lists of Shimei’s sons appear. In between these lists is the statement “these were the leaders of the family of Ladan,” suggesting that the list just before this includes the sons of Ladan, not Shimei. But verse 8 already lists Ladan’s sons. Apparently the text as it stands is a conflation of differing traditions.

¹⁸tn Or “brothers.”

¹⁹tn Or “treasuries.”

²⁰tn The words “the temple” are supplied in the translation for clarification.
