[12:1] 1 tc A few medieval Hebrew
[12:1] 2 tn Heb “him”; the referent (David) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
[12:1] 3 tn Heb “he”; the referent (Nathan) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
[12:1] 4 tn The Hebrew text repeats “to him.”
[23:8] 5 tn The Hebrew word is sometimes rendered as “the three,” but BDB is probably correct in taking it to refer to military officers (BDB 1026 s.v. שְׁלִישִׁי). In that case the etymological connection of this word to the Hebrew numerical adjective for “three” can be explained as originating with a designation for the third warrior in a chariot.
