NET Notes

¹tc The Syriac reads “thirty” here and at the beginning of v. 21; this reading is followed by some English translations (cf. NAB, NASB, NRSV, NLT).

²tn Heb “he was wielding his spear against three hundred, [who were] slain.”

³tn Heb “and to him [reading with the Qere] there was a name among the three.”
