[7:16]  1 tc Heb “before you.” A few medieval Hebrew mss read instead “before me,” which makes better sense contextually. (See also the LXX and the Syriac Peshitta.) The MT reading is probably the result of dittography (note the כ [kaf] at the beginning of the next form), with the extra כ then being interpreted as a pronominal suffix.

[7:16]  2 tn Heb “throne.”

[7:1]  3 tn Heb “house” (also in the following verse).

[7:1]  4 tn Or “rest.”

[7:1]  5 tn The translation understands the disjunctive clause in v. 1b as circumstantial-causal.

[11:12]  6 tn On the chronology involved here see P. K. McCarter, II Samuel (AB), 287.

[11:1]  7 tc Codex Leningrad (B19A), on which BHS is based, has here “messengers” (הַמַּלְאכִים, hammalkhim), probably as the result of contamination from the occurrence of that word in v. 4. The present translation follows most Hebrew mss and the ancient versions, which read “kings” (הַמֶּלָאכִים, hammelakim).

[11:1]  8 tn Heb “go out.”

[11:1]  9 tn Heb “and his servants with him.”

[11:1]  10 tn Heb “all Israel.”

[11:1]  11 tn The disjunctive clause contrasts David’s inactivity with the army’s activity.
