Numbers 14:45

14:45 So the Amalekites and the Canaanites who lived in that hill country swooped down and attacked them as far as Hormah.


tn Heb “came down.”

tn The verb used here means “crush by beating,” or “pounded” them. The Greek text used “cut them in pieces.”

tn The name “Hormah” means “destruction”; it is from the word that means “ban, devote” for either destruction or temple use.
