2 Samuel 8:16-17

Context
David’s Cabinet

8:16 Joab son of Zeruiah was general in command of 1  the army; Jehoshaphat son of Ahilud was secretary; 8:17 Zadok son of Ahitub and Ahimelech son of Abiathar 2  were priests; Seraiah was scribe;

1 tn Heb “was over.”

2 tc Here Ahimelech is called “the son of Abiathar,” but NCV, CEV, and REB reverse this to conform with 1 Sam 22:20. Most recent English versions (e.g., NAB, NASB, NIV, NRSV, NLT) retain the order found in the MT.
