1 Kings 11:20

Context
11:20 Tahpenes’ sister gave birth to his son, 1  named Genubath. Tahpenes raised 2  him in Pharaoh’s palace; Genubath grew up in Pharaoh’s palace among Pharaoh’s sons.

1 Kings 16:18

Context
16:18 When Zimri saw that the city was captured, he went into the fortified area of the royal palace. He set the palace on fire and died in the flames. 3 

1 tn Heb “bore him Genubath his son.”

2 tc The Hebrew text reads וַתִּגְמְלֵהוּ (vattigmÿlehu, “weaned him”) but a slight alteration of the consonantal text yields וַתִּגְדְלֵהוּ (vattigdÿlehu, “raised him”), which seems to make better sense.

3 tn Heb “and he burned the house of the king over him with fire and he died.”
