2 Samuel 20:26
Ira <05896> [Ira.]
[Ithrite. Jairite.]
priest <03548> [chief ruler. or, prince.]
The Hebrew is {cohen ledawid,} which might be rendered, a priest of David; and so the Septuagint, Vulgate, Syriac, and Arabic. The Chaldee has {rav,} a chief or prince: probably he was a kind of domestic chaplain or seer to the king. # 24:11 2Ch 35:15
2 Samuel 8:18
Benaiah <01141> [Benaiah.]

chosen ruler <04899> [his anointed.]
descendants <02233> [seed.]
2 Samuel 2:10
years ............ two years <08141 08147> [two years.]
Houbigant proposes to read {shesh shanah,} "six years" instead of {shetayim shanim,} "two years," of the text, which he contends is a solecism; for, in pure Hebrew, the words should be {shetayim shanah;} and this is the reading of twenty MSS.; but two is acknowledged by all the versions and MSS. yet collated.
2 Samuel 3:10

2 Samuel 7:7
moved among <01980> [walked.]
any .... leaders <07626 0259> [any of the tribes.]
[any of the judges.]
Instead of [shbty,] {shivtey,} "tribes," we should probably read, with Houbigant, Drs. Waterland and A. Clarke, and others, [shpty,] {shophtey,} "judges;" which is the reading in the parallel passage. Indeed there is but one letter of difference between them, and letters which might be easily mistaken for each other; the apex under the upper stroke of the [p,] {pay,} being the only mark to distinguish it from the [b,] {baith.} Compare with ver. 11.
care for <07462> [feed.]
