2 Kings 25:12

Context
25:12 But he³ left behind some of the poor of the land and gave them fields and vineyards.

[5:19] ¹tn Heb “he”; the referent (Elisha) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[5:19] ²tn Heb “and he went from him a distance of land.” The precise meaning of כִּבְרַה (kivrah) “distance,” is uncertain. See BDB 460 s.v. כִּבְרַה, and HALOT 459-60 s.v. II *כְּבָרַה, and M. Cogan and H. Tadmor, II Kings (AB), 65.

[25:12] ³tn Heb “the captain of the royal guard.” However, the subject is clear from the preceding and contemporary English style would normally avoid repeating the proper name and title.
