[14:50]  1 sn The word “uncle” can modify either Abner or Ner. See the note on the word “son” in v. 51 for further discussion.

[25:3]  1 sn The name נָבָל (Nabal) means “foolish” or “senseless” in Hebrew, and as an adjective the word is used especially of persons who have no perception of ethical or religious claims. It is an apt name for this character, who certainly typifies such behavior.
