NETBible

One day,¹ as he was worshiping in the temple of his god Nisroch,² his sons³ Adrammelech and Sharezer struck him down with the sword.⁴ They escaped to the land of Ararat; his son Esarhaddon replaced him as king.

NET Notes

¹sn The assassination probably took place in 681 b.c.

²sn No such Mesopotamian god is presently known. Perhaps the name is a corruption of Nusku.

³tc Although “his sons” is absent in the Kethib, it is supported by the Qere, along with many medieval Hebrew mss and the ancient versions. Cf. Isa 37:38.

⁴sn Extra-biblical sources also mention the assassination of Sennacherib, though they refer to only one assassin. See M. Cogan and H. Tadmor, II Kings (AB), 239-40.
