2 Chronicles 25:27-28

Context
25:27 From the time Amaziah turned from following the Lord, conspirators plotted against him in Jerusalem, 1  so he fled to Lachish. But they sent assassins after him 2  and they killed him there. 25:28 His body was carried back by horses, 3  and he was buried in Jerusalem with his ancestors 4  in the City of David. 5 

1 tn Heb “and they conspired against him [with] a conspiracy in Jerusalem.”

2 tn Heb “and they sent after him to Lachish.”

3 tn Heb “and they carried him on horses.”

4 tn Heb “fathers.”

5 tc The Hebrew text has “Judah,” but some medieval mss read “David,” as does the parallel passage in 2 Kgs 14:20.

sn The phrase the City of David refers here to the fortress of Zion in Jerusalem, not to Bethlehem. See 2 Sam 5:7.
