1 tn The Hebrew text has “Celubai,” but see v. 18, where Caleb is described as the son of Hezron.
2 tc The LXX reads “Salmon” (cf. Ruth 4:21) and is followed by some English versions (e.g., NIV, NCV, TEV, NLT).
3 tn In 2 Sam 2:18 this name appears as “Abishai,” a spelling followed by many English versions here.
