2 Chronicles 20:23

Context
20:23 The Ammonites and Moabites attacked the men from Mount Seir 5  and annihilated them. 6  When they had finished off the men 7  of Seir, they attacked and destroyed one another. 8 

1 tn Heb “Huram,” but here this refers to Huram Abi (2 Chr 2:13). The complete name has been used in the translation to avoid possible confusion with King Huram of Tyre.

2 tn Heb “Huram finished doing all the work which he did for King Solomon [on] the house of God.”

3 tn Or “the sky.” The Hebrew term שָׁמַיִם (shamayim) may be translated “heaven(s)” or “sky” depending on the context.

4 tn Heb “and all that entered the heart of Solomon to do in the house of the Lord and in his house he successfully accomplished.”

5 tn Heb “the sons of Ammon and Moab stood against the residents of Mount Seir.”

6 tn Heb “to annihilate and to destroy.”

7 tn Heb “residents.”

8 tn Heb “they helped, each one his fellow, for destruction.” The verb עָזַר (’azar), traditionally understood as the well-attested verb meaning “to help,” is an odd fit in this context. It is possible that it is from a homonymic root, perhaps meaning to “attack.” This root is attested in Ugaritic in a nominal form meaning “young man, warrior, hero.” For a discussion of the proposed root, see HALOT 811 s.v. II עזר.
