Discovery Box1 Samuel 20:19 
Context20:19 On the third day 1 you should go down quickly 2 and come to the place where you hid yourself the day this all started. 3 Stay near the stone Ezel.
1 Samuel 24:7
Context24:7 David restrained his men with these words and did not allow them to rise up against Saul. Then Saul left the cave and started down 4 the road.
1 tc Heb “you will do [something] a third time.” The translation assumes an emendation of the verb from שִׁלַּשְׁתָּ (shillashta, “to do a third time”) to שִׁלִּישִׁית (shillishit, “[on the] third [day]”).
2 tn Heb “you must go down greatly.” See Judg 19:11 for the same idiom.
3 tn Heb “on the day of the deed.” This probably refers to the incident recorded in 19:2.
4 tn Heb “went on.”
