1 Kings 12:2
Context12:2 2 When Jeroboam son of Nebat heard the news, he was still in Egypt, where he had fled from King Solomon and had been living ever since. 3


[11:23] 1 tn Heb “him”; the referent (Solomon) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
[12:2] 2 tc Verse 2 is not included in the Old Greek translation. See the note on 11:43.
[12:2] 3 tn Heb “and Jeroboam lived in Egypt.” The parallel text in 2 Chr 10:2 reads, “and Jeroboam returned from Egypt.” In a purely consonantal text the forms “and he lived” and “and he returned” are identical (וישׁב).
