[17:22]  ² tn The word “River” is not in the Hebrew text here or in v. 24, but has been supplied in the translation for clarity.

[21:3]  ³ tn After the preceding imperfect verbal form, the subordinated imperative indicates purpose/result. S. R.

Driver, Notes on the Hebrew Text and the Topography of the Books of Samuel, 350).
