2 Chronicles 18:29

The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, “I will disguise myself and then enter ¹  the battle; but you wear your royal attire.” So the king of Israel disguised himself and they entered the battle.

1Sa 28:8; 1Ki 14:2-6; 1Ki 20:38; 2Ch 35:22,23; Job 24:15; Ps 12:2; Pr 26:25; Jer 23:24

¹ tn The Hebrew verbal forms could be imperatives (“Disguise yourself and enter”), but this would make no sense in light of the immediately following context. The forms are better interpreted as infinitives absolute functioning as cohortatives (see IBHS 594 §35.5.2a). Some prefer to emend the forms to imperfects.
