NET Notes |
1 tn Heb “what he did to the two commanders…and he killed them.” 2 tn Heb “he shed the blood of battle in peace.” 3 tn Heb “and he shed the blood of battle when he killed which is on his waist and on his sandal[s] which are on his feet.” That is, he covered himself with guilt and his guilt was obvious to all who saw him. |
