2 Chronicles 26:3

Context

26:3 Uzziah was sixteen years old when he began to reign, and he reigned for fifty-two years in Jerusalem. 13  His mother’s name was Jecholiah, who was from Jerusalem.

1 sn The figure given here appears to refer to the combined length of both pillars (perhaps when laid end-to-end on the ground prior to being set up; cf. v. 17); the figure given for the height of the pillars in 1 Kgs 7:15, 2 Kgs 25:17, and Jer 52:21 is half this (i.e., eighteen cubits).

2 tc The Syriac reads “eighteen cubits” (twenty-seven feet). This apparently reflects an attempt at harmonization with 1 Kgs 7:15, 2 Kgs 25:17, and Jer 52:21.

3 tn Heb “and he made before the house two pillars, thirty-five cubits [in] length, and the plated capital which was on its top [was] five cubits.” The significance of the measure “thirty-five cubits” (52.5 feet or 15.75 m, assuming a cubit of 18 inches) for the “length” of the pillars is uncertain. According to 1 Kgs 7:15, each pillar was eighteen cubits (27 feet or 8.1 m) high. Perhaps the measurement given here was taken with the pillars lying end-to-end on the ground before they were set up.

4 tn Heb “ten every cubit.”

5 sn Horeb is another name for Mount Sinai (cf. Exod 3:1).

6 tn Heb “in Horeb where.”

7 tc The parallel text of 1 Kgs 10:19 has instead “and the back of it was rounded on top.”

8 tn Heb “[There were] armrests on each side of the place of the seat, and two lions standing beside the armrests.”

9 tn Heb “and it was to days from days, and about the time of the going out of the end for the days, two, his intestines came out with his illness and he died in severe illness.”

10 tn Heb “and his people did not make for him a fire, like the fire of his fathers.”

11 tn Heb “and he went without desire.”

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