2 Chronicles 20:35-36

20:35 Later King Jehoshaphat of Judah made an alliance with King Ahaziah of Israel, who ¹  did evil. 20:36 They agreed ²  to make large seagoing merchant ships; ³  they built the ships in Ezion Geber.

[20:35]  ¹ tn Heb “he.” The pronoun has been translated as a relative pronoun for stylistic reasons.

[20:36]  ² tn Heb “he made an alliance with him.”

[20:36]  ³ tn Heb “make ships to go to Tarshish.” This probably refers to large ships either made in or capable of traveling to the distant western port of Tarshish; a “Tarshish-ship” was essentially a large seagoing merchant ship.
