NET © Notes |
1 tn Heb “that they were a stench [i.e., disgusting] with David.” 2 tn Heb “the Ammonites.” 3 tn Or “Arameans of Beth Rehob and Arameans of Zobah.” 4 tn Or perhaps “the men of Tob.” The ancient versions (the LXX, the Syriac Peshitta, and Vulgate) understand the name to be “Ish-tob.” It is possible that “Ish” is dittographic and that we should read simply “Tob,” a reading adopted by a number of recent English versions. |
