tn Heb “rose up and conspired [with] a conspiracy.”

tn Heb “Beth Millo which goes down [toward] Silla.”

tn Heb “they.”

tc The consonantal text (Kethib) suggests, “and they went, striking down,” but the marginal reading (Qere) is “they struck down, striking down.” For a discussion of the textual problem, see M. Cogan and H. Tadmor, II Kings (AB), 46.

tn Heb “arose and went to.”
