[18:4]  ¹ tn Or “horsemen.”

[18:4]  ² tn Heb “his”; the referent (Hadadezer) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[18:4]  ³ tn Heb “and David cut the hamstrings of all the chariot horses, and he left from them one hundred chariot horses.”

[28:18]  ⁴ tn The words “he gave him” are supplied in the translation for clarity and for stylistic reasons.

[28:18]  ⁵ tc The Hebrew text reads מֶרְכָּבָה (merkavah, “chariot”), but the final he (ה) is probably dittographic – note the prefixed he (ה) on the immediately following word. It is preferable to read מֶרְכָּב (merkav, “seat”).

[28:18]  ⁶ tc The Hebrew text does not have “their wings,” but the word כְּנָפַיִם (kÿnafayim, “wings”) has probably been accidentally omitted by homoioteleuton. Note that the immediately preceding לְפֹרְשִׂים (lÿforsim) also ends in mem (ם).

[19:6]  ⁷ tn Heb “that they were a stench [i.e., disgusting] with David.”

[19:6]  ⁸ tn The Hebrew word כִּכַּר (kikar, “circle”) refers generally to something that is round. When used of metals it can refer to a disk-shaped weight made of the metal or, by extension, to a standard unit of weight. According to the older (Babylonian) standard the “talent” weighed 130 lbs. (58.9 kg), but later this was lowered to 108.3 lbs. (49.1 kg). More recent research suggests the “light” standard talent was 67.3 lbs. (30.6 kg). Using this as the standard for calculation, the Ammonites hired chariots and charioteers for about 33.7 tons (30,600 kg) of silver.
