NET © Notes |
1 tn The parallel text of 2 Sam 24:15 reports that God sent a plague, while 24:16-17 attributes this to the instrumentality of an angel. 2 tn Or “destroy.” 3 tn Heb “while he was destroying.” 4 tn Or “saw.” 5 tn Or “was grieved because of.” 6 tn Heb “concerning the calamity.” 7 tn For this nuance of the Hebrew word רַב (rav), see BDB 913 s.v. 1.f. 8 tn Heb “Now, drop your hand.” 9 tn In the parallel text in 2 Sam 24:16 this individual is called אֲרַוְנָא (’aravna’, “Aravna”), traditionally “Araunah.” The form of the name found here also occurs in vv. 18-28. |
