2 Kings 23:4

23:4 The king ordered Hilkiah the high priest, the high-ranking priests, ⁶  and the guards ⁷  to bring out of the Lord’s temple all the items that were used in the worship of ⁸  Baal, Asherah, and all the stars of the sky. ⁹  The king ¹⁰  burned them outside of Jerusalem in the terraces ¹¹  of Kidron, and carried their ashes to Bethel. ¹² 

[4:4]  ¹ tn Heb “all these vessels.”

[4:6]  ² tn Heb “to her son.”

[25:16]  ³ tc The MT lacks “the twelve bronze bulls under ‘the Sea,’” but these words have probably been accidentally omitted by homoioarcton. The scribe’s eye may have jumped from the וְהָ (vÿha-) on וְהַבָּקָר (vÿhabbaqar), “and the bulls,” to the וְהָ on וְהַמְּכֹנוֹת (vÿhammÿkhonot), “and the movable stands,” causing him to leave out the intervening words. See the parallel passage in Jer 52:20.

[14:14]  ⁴ tn Heb “the sons of the pledges.”
