NET Notes

¹tn Heb “he”; the referent (Absalom) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

²tc Here and in v. 27 the translation follows 4QSam^a ויצפר (vayyitspar, “and he pressed”) rather than the MT וַיִּפְרָץ (vayyiprats, “and he broke through”). This emended reading seems also to underlie the translations of the LXX (καὶ ἐβιάσατο, kai ebiasato), the Syriac Peshitta (we’alseh), and Vulgate (cogeret eum).

³tn Heb “he”; the referent (the king) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

⁴tn Heb “he”; the referent (David) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
