1 Kings 11:23-24

11:23 God also brought against Solomon ¹  another enemy, Rezon son of Eliada who had run away from his master, King Hadadezer of Zobah. 11:24 He gathered some men and organized a raiding band. ²  When David tried to kill them, ³  they went to Damascus, where they settled down and gained control of the city.

[11:23]  ¹ tn Heb “him”; the referent (Solomon) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[11:24]  ² tn Heb “and he was the officer of a raiding band.”

[11:24]  ³ tn The Hebrew text reads “when David killed them.” This phrase is traditionally joined with what precedes. The ancient Greek version does not reflect the phrase and some suggest that it has been misplaced from the end of v. 23.
