Judges 20:43

Context
NETBible

They surrounded the Benjaminites, chased them from Nohah, 1  and annihilated 2  them all the way to a spot east of Geba. 3 

XREF

Jos 8:20-22

NET © Notes

tc The translation assumes the reading מִנּוֹחָה (minnokhah, “from Nohah”; cf. 1 Chr 8:2) rather than the MT’s מְנוּחָה (mÿnukhah, “resting place”).

tn Heb “tread down, walk on.”

tn Heb “unto the opposite of Gibeah toward the east.” Gibeah cannot be correct here, since the Benjaminites retreated from there toward the desert and Rimmon (see v. 45). A slight emendation yields the reading “Geba.”
